The frustration in following such discussions is when people refuse to apparently even consider known and well documented explanations for differences (such as subjective bias) and go looking for implausible and esoteric technical-sounding explanations for their personal experience. It is rather like blaming the sinking of the Titanic on the imbalance of the weight of the deck chairs between the port and starboard sides of the ship while ignoring the hole in the ship's hull from the iceberg collision. I've always found it ironic that the "subjective" type of audiophile looks the hardest for technical justification of their perception. They seem the least likely to accept subjective bias as an explanation or do the type of testing that would reduce or eliminate such bias when listening. It's almost as if they are embarrassed to be human. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95276 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
