Do the Audio gods shine upon you?


Has anyone else had this experience or am I just nuts? You sit down for a quiet evening of Hi Fi listening and after some warmup time you suddenly realize that your system sounds dramatically better than it did the night before. I am talking about those little things like more resolution, low level detail. You know, those things that turn audiophiles on. I am almost afraid to turn my system on again for fear that the "audio gods" have abandoned me.

Simply stated, "YES"! And, when it happens I take full advantage and play till I can't play no more. BTW, this happens to me when I play my guitar. Sometimes it sound better or I enjoy my playing more. It isn't so much the quality of my playing but rather where my head is at. I bet if you were consistantly hooked up to a MRI or CAT scan it would show diferances related to your perceptual enjoyment of the activity even when the enntertanment is repeated. I bet it comes down to some sort of organic variable with in our bodies. Sometimes it is the chicken and sometimes it is the egg. I bet the same could be said for the enjoyment of food. Why does that icecream in the icebox taste so good one day and average the next? Again, I think that at times the real magic happens when the organic variables are in just the right balance. Or maybe it just the AC.
