RE: My response

That is a canard. But it does seem to be a favorite phrase of some to put in the mouths of others.

I can't think of a case where I've seen anyone say or write "everything sounds the same". If they have, it's been a rare event.

What I have seen is that "big" differences in sighted testing typically get much smaller during blind ones. My experience is that it isn't a lack of difference but rather how much hyperbole is involved.

Of course, no one engages in blind listening for their regular listening sessions. If sighted factors increase enjoyment for a particular listener, I say "enjoy"!
