DBX is useful for helping to interpret a positive result. Nothing more. *The absence of a positive result does not imply a negative result.* This cannot be overemphasized. The problem with DBX in audio is that people don't know how to interpret the results.
Thank you for such a well written and informative post. It seems this could provide common ground for objectivists and subjectivists alike. If there are positive results the Obs. agree anyway. With negative results the Obs should no longer say the differences unequivocally don't exist (which P O's the subs) However it would be perfectly reasonable for the obs to say negative results lead me to the opinion that the differences likely don't exist. Conversly the subs subjective hearing reality can no longer be "absolutely" negated by the test. Oh joy, oh bliss, we can all live in harmony, and just in time for the holidays :-) -- tomjtx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tomjtx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7449 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29912 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
