Another one of those Placebophile fantasies, I guess. Measuring is like sex - it always gets over too fast. ;-) Seriously, the whole point of basing decisions on reliable facts is the pursuit of better sound quality. Nobody has credibly explained to me how basing decisions on fantasies and falsehoods gets anyplace helpful. Yet, there are so many who run their lives that way. Go figure! Some people like to live in a fantasy world where everything is as they perceive or dream it up to be. One of the problems with pursuing reliable truth is that from time to time you may find that things are not exactly as you previously thought. Unreliable listening tests avoid that sort of thing and keep the fantasies and falsehoods alive. doctor_big wrote: > > > Arnyk wrote: > > > > If someone perchance figures out how to avoid outlandish numbers of of > > false positives and/or false negatives while not using ABX or any other > > kind of DBT methodology, I'd love to see it! > > > > > > Seriously though - this really is the nut of the matter. > Exactly. Nobody seems to know of a better way, if the goal is reliable information. Do you know of a better way to obtain reliable information? Some people don't seem to care whether the world they perceive is true or false, and others do. Through long and sometimes harsh experience I have found it to be most helpful and profitable to be committed to reliable truths, oppose that as you will and have. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arnyk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64365 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103684 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
