Have you ever hated the sound of your system one day, and loved it the next?


Last night I went to bed thinking my system was going down the tubes. This morning I loved it.
 Last night it sounded painfully bright and unbalanced.  This morning, on the same CDs, it sounded full and rich.
Now, I ask you, is it the system or me???
  I understand changes in electrical currents from the wall can play a part, but I have an expensive power conditioner.
 I was just wondering if this is a typical bugaboo among audiophiles.

@shadorne , I don't think those are the tricks @clearthink was asking about...
This is probably the single biggest reason audiofools hear amazing things from fuses or ordinary bits of wire.

However, an even bigger reason audiofools hear amazing things from fuses or ordinary bits of wire is that they wind up "reversing" them.

Yes every hobby has amateurs who do this they think "if only I had the same set of clubs as Tiger Woods" or "if only I had the same piano as Vladamir Horowitz" but of course it doesn't work that way and in the case of audio and Music Reproduction Systems I prefer not to let others' do they're thinking for me.

Much of what many have said here is true. To go to extremes, whether love or hate, is to miss the glorious middle of true enjoyment. 

Mea culpa!
