Home Critic's Corner

Discuss a review. Provide constructive feedback. Talk to the industry.

:)

Tests have proved that a single-blind test is not good enough (the experimenter provides clues to the tester).

You mean like 3 out of 4 Dentists prefer Dentyne?

This is the situation that actually exists today except that subjectivists will readily ignore materials science and elementary knowledge of electrical engineering ...

Materials science? Elementary electrical engineering ?(childlike actually) You're kidding, right? You can't possibly believe that current metrics used for audio have any relevancy to perceived audio quality WHATSOEVER. If you really do, then I sentence you to life listening to a Crown IC-150 preamp! Measures great...sounds absolutely dreadful.

We observationalists make observations in the current dearth of any useful measured performance criteria. History has proven time after time that there have been many a clueless pocket protector engineer that hasn't a foggiest notion as to what really matters. The first generation SS designers were all over negative feedback. Wrong. The first generation digital guys touted "perfect sound forever". What a joke!
