Yes, there are many many cases that prove this.  Given the good DSP
software these days, a crappy 1ghz laptop, and the internal sound card
in the laptop.  Hook up a ham radio to that "crap" audio rig and you
can display and decode digital radio signals that you wouldn't be able
to pick out of the noise with your ears.

Things like audio diffmaker can pull out differences in audio that you
probably wouldn't be able to hear yourself without the computer help in
comparing.
