Yeah, DBTs are valid in the world of science. Do you have credential to question the scientific world?
Well, I KNOW that tires make a difference on my Porsche. And real leather is kind of nice, but I won't say more comfortable. Did you mean $200 for a set of 4 tires? Or just one tire? Do you buy PS tires at a discount store or what?
one tire.....there are extremely expensive tires that have no performance gains.
Thats great so you do not believe DBTs are worth much at all?
How would you go about controlling external influences then in any listening test?
It is psychosomatic. The thing with me is I am not so concerned with what people *can* hear as much as what they *will* hear.
$200 sounds kinda cheap for performance tires. I googled C6 Corvette tires and go a page where most of the tires were $300 and UP, on sale!

Do they come with an automatic feeding spoon?
Can't recall that I've called anybody deaf. Untrained ears..., well I'm still learning, it is very worthwhile if you are willing to put in the effort. 😉
Unfortunately all that matter is what you can hear, no measurements will ever change that.
Sure, you can only be honest if you can't hear any differences.
I've done more measuring and comparative listening than you would imagine, some blind also but apparently nothing will be good enough, not if you hear differences anyway.
Yeah but Doug, most folks by a car to drive, not ride in. You should try a driving test blindfolded.
Oh, um -- maybe not.....

Doug20, I am also a 'life member' of the IEEE. That is because I was a member in good standing for more than 40 years. If you read more about DBX testing, you would find my input on it from more than 30 years ago. Yes, I have debated with Dr. Lipshitz, Dr. Toole, and their associates for many, many years. Who is your reference?

I guess higher quality gives rise to these sort of reviews, eh?😱

I believe my system sounds better with cables. I also think that in a DBT I could tell the difference.
Don't repeat yourself Curly.They know what you mean,but simply ignore you.If they stop ignoring you,they will have nothing to allow them call others with "cosmetic" names like idiots etc......This maybe makes them feel smarter and able to have absolute control over thei brains 🙂 Unfortunately that does not help them with their hearing though.

I agree, it's just feeding the Fire, I think doug20 is just here to waste time and argue with any thing.
No matter how you slice and dice it, boconnor has a good point.
Why should the audio equipment and cable makers be treated differently?
As auplater said, ".... engineering fact trumps subjective appraisal in the real world outside of high end audio any day of the week."
High quality sound used to be associated with good engineering, now it seems there are people hell bent on having it associated with mysticism. 😕
