Am I hearing things?

I just an extra  new dedicated line run beside the other one. with 10 gauge wire, 30 amp breaker and a 20 amp rated outlet. I don't think it sounds as good!!! What the hey. A little shrill in both vinyl and CD. I'm comparing from what it sounded like last night. Does electricians wire, breaker and outlet have to burn in? Am I alone in this. I'm have a whole system AC but in and the temp got up to 80. Maybe that is why. Also I'm listening at 11 am EST. So the power grid may have an affect. Did I just answer my own question or have other people experienced this. The original dedicated line was put in in 03 with 12 gauge wire, 20 amp breaker and a 15 amp outlet. Are these 2 lines picking up interferrence?

Agree with mickeyb

I had a licensed electrician install a 20 amp circuit for a 4bSST2  (thinking I might later run a pair of 7 monos.) It has the 20 amp circuit breaker. The remainder of the system runs via a 15 amp circuit. No problem

My home is 100% electric, and the major sources of use are the cooktop, water heater and dual  heat pumps/air handlers.
