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?

Is it possible that the speaker drivers have a defect which shows up after they have been driven for a while?

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
