Oncology is the study of cancer which makes Dr. Zeilig about as
qualified to write about computer based digital audio as my
endocrinologist. While I don't ask that everyone who writes about audio
have a background in audio what I do expect is that when they write
something that so directly contradicts all known scientific knowledge
and evidence that they at least back it up with some real proof. Making
fancy tables of and assigning numbers to what are basically just sighted
listening tests does not make "I heard a difference" into real proof.

As an aside I just want to say that I'm not against good sounding audio
equipment, even the high priced stuff, and judging by some of the
signatures on this forum, so are many other members. What I'm against
is use of pseudoscience as a means of justifying some of their
misguided beliefs.
