Sound quality and air temperature....

[Chris]

I would surmise temperatures as well as humidity level changes would have more of an effect on the body and mood affecting the ears sound processing abilities and thus the brains perceptions  than anything else....

I think Chris may have the best answer yet...

Maybe your stuff sounds better when the "air" is off because the compressors put a bunch of crap on your AC lines that degrade the sound?  IMO, nothing sounds good when you're sweating and sitting in a pool of your own juice:-(

The Tick speaks the truth, but dont forget, Greg will tell you, "its a dry heat". You dont really sweat -  you just bake - like a frickin potato!

LOL yup he's right folks, it's a dry heat. And in wyoming it's a dry wind.

There's hope - over here, the crew showed up at 8AM this morning, cold air blowing out of the vents at 2PM. Hope your install goes smoothly...

Yeah, I am with Tick and was also going to add about the AC adding noise to the line... Probably a combo of all the things mentioned...

Hey Guys,

Thanks for all the advice.
I'd read about the Vornado fans and I'll probably get one of those and give it a try.

I used to work in a lot of nice homes and a pretty nice alternative to central air are those ductless systems from folks like Mitsubishi.
When I replaced my old window unit, I wish I'd gone the extra mile and installed one of these.

Just like Tick said, when I fire up my system on a hot day, I keep a basting brush with me.
