Does Storage Damage Equipmnt?


greetings & kind regards

may i please inquire does storage of equipment in commercial / public storage facilities harm equipment . permit me to elaborate . upon playing my system in a prior residence i always was stunned by the quality of reproduction so much so i would almost speak so out loud . however prior to moving to my new current residence the system was stored in such storage facility for several summer months . upon installing system in said new residence i no longer shout out loud "stunning" after each play as i almost did prior . so i kindly inquire has my system been damaged by such storage ?

thank you kindly

cheers

Great. As a starting place, cover the floor with a thick carpet in front of and back at least to the listening area. If you could photograph what is on the sides and in back, that would also be helpful. 

You will need corner bass traps. To simulate this you can pile couch cushions and dense pillows in the corners. Also, I see the acoustic panels. You might try covering it all with an absorbent thick wall hanging. 

Corner traps for the upper corners (these are cheap)... little triangular pillows. 

Have you experimented with toe-in yet?

Well it depends. As long as your speakers were not subject to extremes in  heat or humidity then probably not,

The room and setup play a huge role in how your system sounds... It is really likely this is it. To get a system to sound its best it generally takes months of careful tweaking... the positioning and treating the room. Also, there is some "re-breakin" required after moving stuff. 

Are the photos under Virtual System, you new place or old one? If these are of your new place, then it is easy to see room / system needs lots of work.
