Brightness Differences Between Daytime and Evening

Buckingham, if you get the chance, take a listen to your system in the wee hours of the morning. I am talking about the time that most people are sleeping i.e. 12 - 1 at night and up to about 6 AM or so. I can literally hear an abrupt change every night at somewhere between 12:30 and 2 AM when listening. I can be concentrating on something else ( like the puter ) and the difference is startling enough that it stops me from what i am doing to take notice of it. It is almost like a veil has been lifted and the music becomes far more transparent, liquid and effortless. I wish that i could get these results ALL the time.... Sean

Pick up a couple of those Blue Circle BC-86 Noise Hounds and you will come pretty close to getting early AM sound all the time. Two are better than one.

well, of course it'll be brighter in the daytime .. . .the sun'll be up!

The other costly alternative is to get a Burmester line conditioner. It goes for about $6K, but it is their most sought after product (over their other gear). I was blown away when I borrowed one for a weekend... I also live in an area with pretty "dirty" power.
