Your system sounds better at night. No, you're not imagining it. And no, it's not just because of that glass of Pinot or Merlot.
What you’re probably hearing is cleaner power and less electrical noise in the AC line. During the day, the power grid is under heavy load—air conditioners, machinery, office equipment, switching power supplies from every corner of your neighborhood. That noise rides the AC line straight into your system.
At night, demand drops. The line gets quieter. There’s less conducted and radiated interference. And your gear, especially if it's sensitive analog or digital front end equipment, performs just a little bit better. You might hear a blacker background, a touch more depth, smoother highs.
It’s subtle—but real. And it's one more reason why consistent, regulated power matters.
Of course, a Power Plant doesn’t care if it’s noon or midnight. It just gives you steady, low-impedance, noise-free AC all the time. But for everyone else, yes—hi-fi after dark really does have an edge.
Just don’t blame us when you end up listening until 2 a.m.
