hey guys!
have you ever thought why do you sound better while you are taking bath? what is the science and logic behind that?
lets discuss

 

[logwed]

I'm thinking that because you're very comfortable, the music seems to sound better to you. Proceed with caution, friend...

Just don't bring your tube amp.

Because bathtub acoustics are awesome - moisture-laden air, built-in reverb, and there's no audience to make you self-conscious.

That's because when you are in a hot bath your 'physical mass' is warmer.So when you listen to music or vibration that vibration is more easily conducted throughout your body .
 
Your conductive hearing becomes better .
 
Now you can test out this 'Theory' by setting your self on fire & then seeing how Good the music sounds .
 
Or alternatively if you feel that's taking the pleasure of music listening to  a whole new obsessive level you could just try sitting in a freezer for a few hours and maybe the music will sound worse . In which case theory proved .
 
When you feel comfortable or at ease with your self the music feels/sounds better .

Pshaw. Mr. Rubber Ducky is sure I'll make it big someday. If I can't be comfortable around him, then who?

 

[ib1dance]

Agreed Mr Ducky will always be your greatest fan.

If you are talking about singing, it's got to do with the reverb in the room.

haha nice replies all of you.....i like the info very much given by ib1dance

Resonance.
 
Oh, also all the toxic fumes from our various shower products helps keep the voice notes aloft longer thus adding to the reverb mentioned above.

You are an extraordinarily talented singer.  You problem is you are very shy and you talents can only be unleashed in the privacy of the bathroom.  Once you get over your shyness a new career with fame, glitz, glamour and riches awaits you.

that seems to be the most logical answer to me

it's because the walls in the shower are flat and the room in small. and the plastic it bounces of off.. because if you stand in a closet it won't sound the same. Also water carries sound waves. weird, but true.
