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!

You're welcome.MC....I've learned alot from your perspective on these threads. I just wish everyone on Audiogon would stick to Hi- Fi talk and take their politics to Facebook where it belongs and keep this Hi -Fi only.

@millercarbon "... your "technology" does not completely isolate. Your batteries are connected to the grid for charging. AC grid noise gets a free ride.".

 

You bubble burster you! You do realize now you have made me go back and obsessively research this, just to make myself feel worse, RIGHT!?

 

Here is what I got, many years ago... it suggests it isolates it. (SU1500RTXL2UA SmartOnline® Double-Conversion Rack/Tower Sine Wave UPS).

  • True on-line, double-conversion operation delivers pure sine wave output, precise voltage regulation and isolation from power problems.

The guy selling it says it works. Imagine that!

Just one difference between actual experience and ad copy.

I am guessing that means you don’t have one. If you did, you’d probably believe what the documentation says, like the specs on the all equipment you own. That, and this was published before 24/7/365 gaslighting became predominant (mainstream).

I  supply part of  my system with lithium ion battery pack that puts out pure sine wave. Using on dac compared with AC fed from modded BPT 3.5 transformer based conditioner, I prefer feed from BPT, slightly more closed in veiled sq with batteries.

My take is the inverters in these products affect sq to some extent, YMMV.
