I think what the honourable gentlemen are attempting to get across to you, in their usual patronising self important way, is that science does indeed show that people are very very bad at accurately and consistently judging sound. In all aspects of human senses there is an element of self-deception. "I did this, I therefore expect there to be a difference". It's astonishingly hard for a human being who is looking for a difference to NOT find one.
Personally I am ambivalent about this. I don't much care if people want to buy esoterica that offers whatever improved X or Y or in fact nothing at all but a sense of style, or who want to tweak all day long. No one got hurt, no one went broke, and worst case scenario if someone woke up with a pile of esoterica and decides they really can't tell, actually, after all, it only takes a few hours with eBay to liquidate the lot and you've lost a few quid and had some fun and then got bored and moved on. Just like most hobbies. Each to their own. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ drmatt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59498 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106252 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
