In Reply to: I question extraordinary hearing ability claims with no witnesses no matter who makes them. posted by Richard BassNut Greene on March 20, 2008 at 09:34:26:
like divulging the results of taking AJ's "Audiophile Repellent" distortion analyzer test? Have you taken it yet? If not, why not? Aren't you interested in learning how well you can discern fine differences? If so, how did you do ?
Unless you are able to better my score, naturally I will (continue to) summarily dismiss anything you say given your demonstrated lack of discernment. Or failure to establish said.
