I though air got thinner (less dense) when it gets warm.

Why would a stereo sound better with the fireplace lit? I suspect this
has nothing to do with the crackling sound of a fire. ( just fry your
speakers and you'll get all the crackle you want)
:-) But it has everything to do with the room temperature. This sound
improvement is very plausable, as the room gets warmer, the air
thickens, and higher frequencies tend to sound warmer as well.
Try this in your cold car.......turn your stereo up when the car is cold
and listen to a track. Turn the stereo off and allow the heater to warm
up the car and play the same track/ same volume. It will sound noticably
better.
Are you sure Carver was not adding " fireplace EQ" which would simulate
the audio tone of a warm room? Seems more plausable than adding sounds
of a crackling fire! If I heard such a thing I'd pull the plug out of
the wall and call 911! :-) Mark Dottle
