Do the Audio gods shine upon you?


Has anyone else had this experience or am I just nuts? You sit down for a quiet evening of Hi Fi listening and after some warmup time you suddenly realize that your system sounds dramatically better than it did the night before. I am talking about those little things like more resolution, low level detail. You know, those things that turn audiophiles on. I am almost afraid to turn my system on again for fear that the "audio gods" have abandoned me.

They did today. I was given a couple-o-grand worth of stuff for free today(older technology, but still viable).
More than likely, your HI-Fi did not changed- you did.

Some days my system sounds great - Some days it sounds like crap- it just me - same system.
It's actually the best tweak you can ever do, so I have read and learned. When you hear or imagine a flaw, walk away and take a few days perhaps even a week off from your system and when you return your critical faculty shall have switched back to neutral.
I love the fact that this thread was started on 01-05-01. Who dug it up?

Regards,
I do not knows it's the audio God or not but my system sounds much better in PM time. I live in a surburban area and the neighbourhood is pretty quite and secluded from heavy traffic but during the AM time, my votage fluctuates constantly from 119/120/119/121 and I have to listen at a higher volume as oppose to after PM time, I do not have to crank it up that high and the sound of music is much better. I notice the voltage after 9:00 PM is pretty much stable at 120/122 therefore, I develope a habit to listen to my system after 9:00 pm for an hour or so every night. It could be just me or it could be the voltage fluctuation and the noise of the 2 A/C units of my neigbour running constantly during the hot season. I love to listen to my system after dark since it sounds better. Is it real or is it an illusion?
