Am I hearing the effects of "clean sound"?

Recently,the weather down here in South Florida has been-in a nutshell-perfect.
Not too hot, not to cold, low humidity, nice breeze.
With this type of weather, there's not a need for us Floridians to crank up the ac.
Leaving the windows open does the job.
When I arrived home Saturday night after watching some football with some friends both my wife and son were asleep and my daughter was staying over a friends so of course it was time to crank up the system.
What I heard set me back in a very good way.
Music flowed effortlessly and clear.
Probably the biggest improvement I heard was a lack of grit, if you will, with the music.
Presence was stronger without any rolled-off highs.
It sounded nice!
Do you think that because of the "cleaner" lines and also it was somewhat late, around 11:30 or so, that the music was some what "cleaned up"?
Is this what one could possibly hear with dedicated lines?
As always, thanks for your input.

Thanks for the responses.
No, I have no power conditioning in place although I do have an Oyaide R1 outlet.
Dweller, what I simply meant is that I could play my rig, not crank it up to wall shaking volumes.
When the kids and wife are around, I like to spend time with them vs. listening to music.
Hopefully both you and Dr. Laura would approve.

Thanks again for the input.
I'm going to start doing my homework re: dedicated lines.
No scotch at my friend's house.
The point I was trying to make re: the weather and open windows is that there was no ac current going through the lines and I of ourse was wondering if that had any effect on the sound.
