Solar panels and going green are the right things to do, but they will impact audio quality.
Converting the rays of the sun into electrical energy takes another level of equipment than simply connecting to the electrical grid. Basically, your home runs on batteries, and because that's DC, we need a power inverter to generate a proper sinewave.
When we do that, our HiFi systems won't be pleased. That's the bad news.
The good news is there's a fix for that!
Here's a copy of a letter written to our UK distributor, Kevin of Signature Systems.
"I recently sold a P20 to a customer. He hadn’t listened to his music in two years, since he had solar panels installed on his roof. He said the sound had been terrible since that point in time and all the emotion had been robbed from his music. Here’s his email to me:
"WOW, what else can I say? From the very first note i heard before anything warmed up, I thought something dramatic had occurred. I had to check that It was the same CD I was playing before. Completely transformed the sound. The back ground silence bring out tiny details i had never even new existed on a cd played so many times, the amazingly potent and detailed bass, tonal colours now in full flow AND absolutely no harshness whatsoever...... completely gone. The very thing i wished for and the very reason i bought this. From the graphs it looked like i had terrible harmonic distortion. I more or less gave up listening to hifi 2 years ago when the solar panels were installed.. go figure!!"
Power Plants to the rescue!
