Does your system sound better in the winter?


When you are in the midst of a heatwave and your entire neighborhood is running their Air conditioners, doesnt that drain the quantity/quality of power coming into your house?
Sometimes my system sounds a little thin during hot days.
Is it me, or has anyone else noticed this? THX

Hmmm, this is something I haven't noticed because I've never had the same system throughout all four seasons. I have noticed a difference in sound depending on the time, so I guess this wouldn't be unplausible. LOL @ Phild and his fans and AC, I have the same problem with loud downstairs neighbors and their thumping rap.
am i right? the voltage is down to 110.00 , Man give me that juice........shut off the ac.........Less juice, less quality?
My system sounds fantastic on fall solstice (9/21). It sounds absolutely horrible the other 364 days of the year.
I live in California, where we have no winter. Generally, this is a GOOD thing.
Summer is not a good time for critical listening. Between the air conditioner noise, brownouts, cricket and cicada noise, eating outside, etc,-why bother. Who wants to heat up the tube amps with the a/c blasting away? Most of what little summer listening I do is thru headphones in my 2nd system. Even then I put my Grado's aside and use sealed headphones to try and drown out the AC noise. I have finally found a decent pair of sealed headphones-Ultrasone HFI600.
