Tweaks:	Everything is isolated from vibrations pretty well. I have a set of Tara Labs vanishing points (old style) on the amp everything else is home made ie. racketball halves and cut up mousepads. Subwoofer is on a 1 1/4" piece of wood.
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections):	Oldies, 80's Rock, Some classical and some jazz
System Goals/Comments:	Bass is alot better with the Sunfire sub. Took along time to get it set up just right so that it would blend in well with the Celius speakers. Speakers by themselves in my system are lacking bass.
System Strengths:	Fast and has good PRAT
System Weaknesses:	Room, I need some room treatments. Also I need to check into some better interconnects.
Video/HT System: None
