If you could present a single case of that I would be interested. Same thing/ same way has a meaning in this context which to me is the same gear, the same source material, under the same conditions. Frankly it has never happened for "a huge majority of people".
@Evenharmonics and DPH: my answer is part of an ongoing discussion with Jakob. The issue of stress came up earlier and that sentence was just a way to acknowledge the part of truth in it. Please don't read too much into it.
My point was that stress and cognitive load in sensory tests are real and documented in literature.
yes, stay away from people trying to sell you goods, or enticing you to part with your money, run away as fast as you can...😀

I can spend all night in the pub and not spend a penny, no need to run, they can't make you by a drink, entertainment is free as you watch people deteriorate
The are/brain gets really good at filling in missing information. Because of this it is possible for someone to not be aware of the differences because the brain is filling in the missing pieces. I look to the day when the state of the brain can be directly measured (we are closing in on that) and when we can determine when the brain is doing less work, is more relaxed with one DUT over another bypassing the translation from what someone thinks they are hearing.
In a double blind (ie maybe so blind that people are not aware of weighing in on 2 DUT), test where people can just listen and not have their attention twisted by having to try to pick 1 of 2.

oh, that was a figure of speech, "run away as fast as you can" someone who used to post here said that long long long time ago.....😀 i am sure you were not yet here then....
yes, different people have different mindsets, and different biases based on experience, education and social status...some have bigger wallests than others....no one shoe size to fit all..
the problem here as i see it is that there are millions of permutations on so many variables..
and then listening to music? who can have a magnetic playback in their brains to be able to remember all the minute details when listening to music? the elephant can have photographic memories as some humans do, but earsographic memories? sorry i just coined a new word...
why not just enjoy the music rather than finding reinforcements to your beliefs?
Auditory perception's job is constantly doing this "filling in" or deciding on the best fit of the auditory nerve signals to the stored auditory models. In other words auditory signals mostly fall into a category is called 'poverty of the stimulus' i.e there's not enough information in the signals to solve the problem of creating an ever changing auditory scene - in mathematics, it's called an ill-posed problem
Not always the case in America. Some places you wait in long lines and pay just to walk in.

Sometimes I wonder if diyaudio is largely the product of collective hysteria.
In which case we are mostly rather naive and entirely unable to discern objective reality, but also unable to have much awareness of these limitations.

If you meant satire, no, those are not satire. They are accurate to real life events. That is unless you can debunk any one of the 10 with proof.
