yup, i doubt you would notice it much. i know they do adjust outside concerts to temp and humidity etc, but they are big areas

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Very warm humid air does affect speaker performance and timing so maybe there is an optimum humidity for sound waves in the atmosphere?

I would have though humidity would affect the compliance of the speaker cone suspension (and depending on the material used, the cone itself) to a greater degree than the affect it has on the air.

Well whatever the 'explanation', the fact that you are benefitting from reducing the humidity in your house is good enough for me.
My house was built in the '60s, and I have to say I don't suffer problems with the air inside being too dry (I don't get problems with static), or too humid - weather permitting.

I have actually had a small but effective dehumidifier in my listening room for many years. I used it when I first got it, but found no benefit.
What I really would like is an air filtering unit of some sort. The dust I get is a real problem.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

I'm Dave.
Odd that this thread should pop up now. We have a seriously good dehumidifier, but recently it's been next to impossible to reduce the RH below 60%. The external humidity is higher than that, and has been for weeks. Earlier in the year we could get it down to below 50% insider the house - probably was relatively drier outside then.
A year ago I didn't know about this sort of thing, but I bought a whole bunch of really cheap humidity monitors (typically around £2 each ) and now have them all round the place to keep an eye on how things are going. 70% - which has been mentioned is indeed really high, and it should be possible to get that down to around 60% unless the weather turns really awful.

This is 100% scientifically feasible. (So potential to be accepted by all camps!.....)
I remember reading somewhere about the relationship between air molecules (and their varying concentration/volume of H2O) and sound. I think I was actually reading about the sound barrier at the time so it was probably to do with Typhoon's and F14's but the principal applies.
Looking forward to everyone's findings.
I applaud everyone's enthusiasm regarding this kind of tweak. In many places it might have been dismissed.
Maybe the effect could be likened to using different types of cloth on speaker grills, thicker lets less sound through, thinner the opposite. Maybe.

If the suspension in a cartridge and the rubber surround and suspension on speaker cones can be affected by temperature, then maybe they can also be affected by humidity?
