As Jim points out in his post above, the only way to know when the sound is the absolute best is to find out for yourself (this may seem somewhat unfortunate, for two reasons - one, it's difficult to know whether or not you've actually found the very best "set-up" and not a local maximum, so to speak, and two, this pursuit of the absolute can be very time-consuming. On the bright side, much can come of such effort, and many feel the results justify the effort. As a sidenote, it has been demonstated in the laboratory on very sensitive isolation devices that simply repositioning one of the feet supporting a component on an isolation device can greatly affect the effectiveness of the isolation system - there can be as much as an order of magnitude difference (10 times) in this single change! Unfortunately the only way to discover the point where this occurs is trial and error.
