FWIW Core Power 1800 may be a better value in balanced design. I have that one and like it. They also have a 2400. Just a thought.

AC power has a lot to do with it but its more than just AC IMO. Sometimes its just the right music which stirs the soul. Mood has a great deal to do with it also. But as MC said above, the system always sounds better about 45 min to 1hr after I 1st turn it on.
