No. I was referring to the fact that that paper has precisely zero citations (at least that turned up on either google scholar or the web of science) that are not one of the following: by at least one of the authors, a whitepaper for a speaker manufacturer and/or hi-rez standard, an article arguing that hi-rez is unnecessary, or one paper on EEG techniques by faculty in the same department.
I'm not going to respond to the rest of your post - I'm getting really bored with this.

Speak for yourself. I'm a professional scientist, as is at least one other poster in this thread. > I don't feel up to criticizing scientific studies using solely my logic > : it's kind of ridiculous. It's not at all ridiculous. Science is based on logic. Robin Bowes;353543 Wrote: > > I didn't say individuals couldn't learn it - just that they either have > > it or not. > Eh?

That's the way I > understand it. But the difference is not "audible". If that were the case, you might have thought that at least one out of the 500 or so subjects in the recent 2-year study of SACD versus redbook would have been able to distinguish between them, wouldn't you? Remember, the evidence for "increased pleasure" comes -entirely- from blind ABX listening tests. That means it *is* audible by the most useful definition for this discussion (a difference in sound that listeners can perceive blind) - so why was it not audible during these SACD tests? And more importantly, given that it was not, why do we care? -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54077 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
