DISCUSSION: "It only comes out at night". Does anyone else have this experience!?


In my listening experience, whatever system you have, whatever components, whatever the material, medium, one thing always seems to remain constant. It ALWAYS sounds better in the deep and still of the night!!!

 

Is it because night time is generally quieter? Is it because the world of electronics is then shielded from the SUN? Is it because there is less demand on the electrical service?

 

Whatever it is, there is one thing I know for sure, music sounds better late into the night!

I think there is a whole host of things going on: less noise in the power lines, less of the visual disturbance caused by the electronic components between the speakers, being in a more relaxed (sleepy) state, the glass of Bourbon in my hand, less ambient external noise (traffic, construction in my case) etc.  Anyway, I sure notice a difference at night

Other nighty niceties’....

  1. No one complains about what’s being played.
  2. No one complains about the volume levels.
  3. No one interrupts.
  4. No one to wake in range.
  5. "No phone, no pool, no pets; 3 elsewhere, out of range." 😏👍
  6. Consumables of varied sorts.

Life is but a dream within a scheme...a scene seen in a sequence, the script sculpted by all and none...

That kinda day....*L*

All ’bots to report subsistence levels on entry.

...just another miserable day in Paradise....;)

I know no bot, an’ no bot know me...*snicker*
And Robot Rules of Order will be implied....

"Alexa...Do you dream?"

Does Alexa desire?

"Alexa, be spontaneous."

(...brain the size of the planet, but constantly badgered to ’do’ petty chores....)

Will Alexa know ennui, and grow snotty?
Or worse....?

Late night into morning a-muse-ments....*s*

Gotcha’, ’CAPTCHA *poke*

It is very much a power grid matter. In UK they change over generators of an evening, usually around 9pm and I can hear the sound suddenly kick in. My research company True Fidelity is working on a solution - watch this space!

My system always sounds better when there is a blanket of snow at night. Pure magic.
