Sounds better when it rains!

Posted by Dawnrazor on July 23, 2020 at 08:24:55:
I have two ideas for why the system always sounds better when it rains

1. Less Rfi

2. Humidity

any others?

I dismissed #2 because Florida is super humid any, heavily air conditioned and I am listening to headphones which I assume would limit any humidity effects.

So that leaves RFI and any other ideas I missed.

Wanting to get that better sound I have been thinking of trying to limit the rfi the system gets from outside.

Is there a tweak that will help? I am thinking that a faraday cage for every component is in order or one big one for all the gear.

Do they need to be grounded to work? Or are they just more effective when grounded?

Also is there another tweak that might be easier or more effective?

TIA
