Loss of bass & full spectrum sound

Can anyone shed light on my audio system problem?
I have PSB Synchrony one,Musical Fidelity M6i + cd player & turntable along w/video
The sound is Full with deep bass then after an hour it reverts to a different unenjoyable presentation with no life..
This has been going on in my NYC apt for about a year
I have a great sound then it changes (white-washed).
I adjust speaker cables(AQ biwire comet)& occasionally it regains a full body sound however after about one hour it's gone.
All my components have been checked to function properly.
I suspect an electrical problem but voltage is steady 120
Any similar experiences?

You might also try a different outlet using a 12g extension cord. You could also go as far as trying an outlet that is on a different breaker.

That's interesting
I had PSB Synchrony II & figure Synchrony would give more bass (which it does when working) but never tried different brand speakers.
I like PSB Synchrony sound and no one else has problems with them.So would probably discount a driver problem with the PSB

I tried every outlet in my apartment with the same results..
Sometimes the bass would be full & taut but would quickly go away

What gauge do I currently have?
My cables are Audioquest Comet biwire

I've noticed it's eaiser to get one speaker working with full spectrum sound after pulling out speaker cables.
When I try for both speakers after "I found the bsss working properly" it's more difficult to get both speakers to be working together.
The slightet break in the circut like changing Records or different sources eaisly knocks out the lower full bass.
Even with the one speaker after 'bout an hour the sound changes and the taut bass is gone.
Left with music with no emotion
I am thinking of buying PS Audio P-3 power station
Anyone have helpful insight if this would help?
