Yes, but in that case most people would also hear the change. We're
talking about a tweak in which half of us don't hear anything, and half
think it's the best thing since sliced bread.

Let's get to the root of the problem. I believe it's psychology, but
for a different reason. I think that people say they hear a change,
because it says how great their system is. And if you don't hear a
difference, it's because your setup is not as good as theirs. Moreover,
the smaller the tweak, the better their system is. Heck, that argument
was used just a few posts ago. In my opinion, it's more about bragging
rights than about sound.
