Because people like to flatter themselves and believe they see and hear more than they can... ignoring that their head contains an incredibly fast and powerful (and totally capricious) analog signal processor called the brain. It manipulates and twists everything we see and hear. Usually this is for our 'good'.. but sometimes it just behaves in what appears to be a random manner: coloring our senses wrongly because our mood is different.. or we had too much or not enough coffee, or we are mad at the kids on the lawn... I don't get why people insist their ears are so golden but don't admit that perhaps their brain is even more golden, detecting subtle differences in the way the tester says, "okay, what does this sound like?" and using that to infer what the source material is with no effort at all. The brain is really scary sometimes at the signals it picks up, processes, and uses to taint everything, all subconsciously. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45839 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
