A couple of nights ago, Mrs Loop was away on business and as usual, this afforded an extended listening opportunity. The weather's been a bit weird of late, to say the least, and the log burner had been lit earlier in the day as the night promised to be quite cold. As it turned out, the night was quite warm and the central heating had also been on. The result was that one of my listening rooms was overly warm.
As the listening session progressed, I noticed that everything sounded much sweeter than usual: massed symphonic strings had incredible amounts of detail and woodwind instruments were more euphonic and 'liquid' than usual. Gil Shaham's violin playing Bach sonata's was simply breathtaking.
Angus and Julia Stone's 'Yellow Brick Road' from 'Down The Way' was just mesmerising.
My system in this room usually sounds pretty good, but that night it was exceptional.
I can only put this down to the increase in ambient temperature.
Has anyone else noticed a difference in sound from their system as a result of room temperature?
