Good morning friends

No, haven't studied statistics since college many years ago.

Let me pose a question, as I'm curious what you think about it. Have you ever had one of those times where you listen to your system and it just seems that everything sounds better? The imaging seems more realistic, the tonality seems more accurate, you get more involved in the actual music itself. It sounds better, and yet nothing in your system has changed. How exactly do you explain that?"




Yes, there are occasions when my office system sounds better than others. I work late too often. Mostly I listen either to the news or to Soundscapes, a digital cable music channel. I've noticed that sometimes late at night, the system will sound better. I attribute this observable improvement to 2 factors:
(1) lower ambient background noise from outside, and
(2) either 'cleaner' electricity or more of it.
I haven't measured line voltage, nor have I ever put a scope on the AC, nor have I checked the ambient noise level with an SPL meter. Just guessing, however, even though this system always sounds great, sometimes, always late at night, it just sounds better.



Enjoy the Music. Trust your ears. Laugh at Folks Who Claim to Know it All.
