Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this?


I've been experimenting with different cables between components. Nothing sounds right since trying to improve sound with new mix of cables. There is no bass and boring, highs are okay but life is gone from system. So I flipped everything back the way it was still sound horrible. Ran everything 24/7 for a couple days still no go. Let it run a couple more days dynamics are back and bass is full big and has tone again and enjoyable to listen to. Can someone tell me why this happens. I've also moved just speaker cables around without unhooking them and seen this happen, I don't get it.

Humidity effects (Attenuation of high frequencies) on the sound in a room are very minimal. Just like temperature effects. Over very long distances they add up, though. Now, electric static charge is certainly an audiophile issue and related to humidity. I can’t help notice nobody’s answered by question why bowls of very cold water placed out in front of the speakers improve the sound.
Look, this is pretty simple ... you have not yet readjusted to your original set up. That can take time, so don't sweat it.
Over typical listening temperatures, it does not make much differences, but w.r.t. humidity it can. Depending on the reference quoted, at 5 meters attenuation of 1db at 10KHz  at the right humidity level will happen. When you consider directed sound is only part of the total energy, the path lengths will average longer so higher than 1db at 10KHz is possible. That right humidity being ~20-25%.

With the exception of phono cables and interconnects specifically designed to filter, I guarantee you no interconnect is going to make a 1db change at 10Khz, and keep in mind this causes a change in direct/reflected energy.

^^^^^^

A normal response would be "Oh sorry, did not realize humidity could impact the attenuation that much.".
Who cares? Most systems are too bright anyway.
