Does your system's sound change with the weather?


This maybe a crazy post but here goes. I have been noticing this with every decent pair of speakers I've owned for a while now. The sound of the system seems to change with the weather. This used to drive me nuts. One day things sounded great. The next day I would either hear a slight dullness or it would be more emphasis on the highs.

I would swap gear and unplug the power conditioner.None of this ever helped.Then I remeber reading one of Roy Johnson's post that mentioned air pressure and the differences in spl depending on the elevation.

Over a year ago I started paying closer attention to the weather but specifically low pressure and high pressure weather systems. Sure enough when ever there was an eratic pressure change, the sound would change in my system. Could this be the speakers ..my ears or both that allow me to hear these changes in air pressure? Is there anyone else that notices this? All comments or theories welcomed!

try living in Michigan! The weather changes as much as I change the channel on TV!

Interesting thread.... I notice my stereo listening enjoyment goes up and down like a barameter so, I will note the weather on especially good stereo listening days, remember the glass is half full :)
