Personally I do not understand the logic that argues "the benefit of
the doubt". Shouldn't the proponent of a particular tweak have a moral
(or even legal) obligation to provide credible evidence that their
product does makes a diferrence, especially when they charge $1000 per
foot? Why is the burden of prove on buying client ? Why does the
skeptic has to prove that something does not exist, rather than
believer prove that something does exist ? 

Your analogy to religious way of thinking and audiophilia strikes me as
very likely. Hence the lack of credibility.
