Funny thing happened after my neighbor moved.

My neighbor who had lived at his house for 19 years  moved to Indianapolis, Ind about a week ago.

He and his wife had taken care of nice garden on 2 acres house here.

But after having gone through cancer treatment, he (86 years old)has one or two years left according to his doctor.

His wife (87 years young) is healthy with 10 more years left.

Thus he had decided to move closer to his only son.

He got a one acre house at 5 five miles from his son’s house.


He had been very friendly since I moved to my house 7 years ago.

Thus I miss he and his wife very much.


But funny thing happened!

After he moved out, sound out of my audio system got more clean.

Is it because of absence of RF or EMI noise generated by my neighbor.

New neighbor who bought the house will use the house as second home.


If that is so, is this good news to my audio system?

2channel8,

I thought I had clean power too. I live in an area that the houses are far enough apart that each house has its own transformer. 

I have tried many conditioners and they did improve the sound quality anyway.  My latest, is the Audioquest Niagara 7000. It not only improves the sound quality but adds much more dynamics for the amps.

Don't knock it until you try it, you will be surprised and a believer.

Today I heard that new neighborhood is living in Florida.

Thus he may want to live in Washington State during summer time to be away from hurricanes and hot weather.

I visited Disney World in Orlando, Florida January this year.

It would be nice to have a second house there winter time to be away from rainy weather in Washington State.

I abandon Seattle in winter for California 

I would use Bowie’s fabulous The Man Who Fell Earth as a reference for future evaluations of power quality....

have fun up there, shake the rust off and don’t kill the Orca

I had lived in Berkeley from 1982 to 1989.

Thus I have fond memory of North Cal.

But with too frequent forest fire and high tax, I have no intention to move there.

I am considering two options.

The first one is to have second home at Florida or Arizona.

The second option is to travel around the world during rainy season.
