It’s more than just turning off the lights, it’s everything using electricity. Air conditioners, refrigerators, televisions as well as fluorescent lights, LED lights, can all dirty up your electric.
noise on the line
question : power noise & cables :
- most people agree that in the weeee hours of the morning, with limited power line use and "wifi" / data noise, any stereo sounds better - optimal. If a vast majority of audiophiles listen during non-midnight/early morning hours why isn't it scientifically acknowledged that audio cables with various shielding theories, intended to eliminate "wifi"/data and power line noise, are valid, not snake oil?!
I've had an H/K A500 and Bose 301's when I was much younger. Sounded great, Memorable so far.
But as a working new Dad, ,my best memories were very late listening.
I'm currently listening to Maggie .6
s (OLD) and a Mod Wright / Oppo Pre-dac Streamer through Vinni Rossi Int Amp, and it sounds absolutely wonderful.
Long Story Short, Power & Shielding & cable geometry make a world of difference.
Otherwise, why do our stereo's sound best after everyone is gone to bed and turn off all the lights?
