This statement at least is demonstrably false. What you seem to be forgetting is that the placebo effect is _real_ - groups of people given sugar pills will consistently improve as compared to a group given nothing (this is a hard experiment to control properly, but nonetheless it's been done many times). So the fact that many people report hearing something is not reliable evidence that there is a real effect. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26436 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
