yea! it wasn't broken in and than next day OMG!
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.

Often. It is a holistic issue involving different levels of water intake, daily life experience, media format, speaker position, chair position, humidity, how many things are on my mind, what I had for my meals, first/last CD or LP chosen that day, etc. etc. etc. could it be my electricity? Sure, that too. Often I will just find that LPs don’t sound good, or CDs don’t sound good. Rarely it is both not sounding good. Perfection is when both sound good equally. It is is important to both quantify and qualify/externalize and internalize our audio experiences. But we should never take it too seriously—unless it is our profession. If it isn’t your profession, I think it a good idea to turn it off and go for a walk. |
