Variations in how your system sounds?


Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere.
My system sounds consistently good to my ears for the majority of listening sessions but every now and again (say 1 in 20) it sounds slightly 'off' -- not its usual self. It is a very small difference but i do hear it. I would describe it as a slight lack of focus and dynamics. This has happened through many changes of all components.
Is it my mood, or hearing variation? Do i need to filter my power? Do you have similar experiences?

You might consider that your hearing changes day to day, and throughout the day. It is likely not your equipment at all, but you. Humidity levels, exposure to other noise, barometric pressure all affect your hearing.

Dirty power could also be the culprit, although you would likely hear differences more frequently, or at different times of the day if that were the case.
