3 Ingredients to a Healthy Audio Community
humility, respect, and a sense of communityIs it humility to not accept that you, like everyone else on the planet is biased?Is it respectful to not accept your inherent biases and use the results of that lack of acceptance to disrespect others?Is... 
You pay for it and you get it...
@mijostyn, I was going to say it, but I figure I already take enough abuse from people who have blind faith in their lack of bias.  When it hits your ear, you have SPL at a given frequency (and arriving from different angles). No more, no less. Yo... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
Next thing is all known subjective tests including blind tests are designed to detect audible differences in the acoustic signal, but we already know that these differences do not exist.So what else can we prove with blind tests in our situation?M...

clearthink1,213 posts04-28-2021 12:45pmYou are being dishonest, deceptive, and misleading by requiring, demanding, and insisting on blind testing and stating that it is the only valid way to test claims here but then you dismiss completely the abu...

bruce1938 posts04-28-2021 7:41am@clearthinker you make a good point. I read this thread thinking that there would be some consensus among all the golden ears and deep pockets, but the preferences seem all over the map. I like the comments by @crom... 
Is it safe to use a higher amperage rating fuse?

djones513,852 posts04-28-2021 7:36amYou read it again. You simply dismiss bias by waving your hand. You’re missing the point the only way you can attribute any reported result to what is actually heard is through controlled, blind testing. Anythin...
