You mean like the published scientific results from the past that showed that people can't tell the difference between music with and without these 20kHz+ components? > Seriously, only a more recent contradictory research could throw a doubt > veil over these tests. I know none. I can only assume your naivety comes from the desire to believe this... -All- new results must be greeted with skepticism until independently confirmed by several other groups. That's just how things are - the history of science is littered with wrong results where the researchers either overlooked something, made a mistake in the analysis, got caught by a statistical fluke, were affected by confirmation bias, or (-very- rarely) deliberately falsified their results. One thing that's peculiar about the results is that they report a very significant correlation for "Instruments in balance vs. instruments in imbalance", "Comfortable to ears vs. uncomfortable to ears", and "Rich in nuance vs. lacking in nuance" - and no correlation for "Like vs. dislike". That's extremely bizarre - how could you hear the first three things and not prefer one over the other? -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53345 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
