[QUOTE="Rodney_gold, post: 89444, member: 579"] The best way to clean your contacts is to remove and reseat them a few times , the cleaning liquids and creams that used to be marketed claimed to remove oxides , and some of em did , by using phosphoric acids etc - over time , these antioxidant actually made things worse and you had to use more and more of em - great idea to promote corrosion to lock you into using an anti corrosion agent. Gold never oxidises , silver does , but its oxide is electrically conductive. One of the best tip is to go to other ppls places and listen to their systems and see whether their sound is more to your taste than yours and then determine where the deficiency lies within yours and fix it. The ultimate tip is to remember that there is not ultimate truth in terms of the BEST system , all audio reproduction is based on preference as there iis never a reference for how a system SHOULD sound apart from being there and listening to the final mix in the studio. This tip boils down to "Use your OWN ears to decide whether something is good or not" [/QUOTE]
