In Reply to: You know what's strange, nobody does blind tests for video. Only for audio. posted by geoffkait on November 3, 2021 at 08:44:18:
.., and in video stores you often have several sets of screens playing at once. So it can be relatively easy to compare video screen quality amongst competition.But in audio, we generally listen to only one set of speakers playing one music recording at a time. Switching back and forth between speaker systems in audio, we are forced to rely on delayed memories that might be unreliable in comparative testing.
In memory recall, corruption of memory data is bound to set in - especially if you're an audiophile psycho.
Besides all of the above, how could we ever create a "blind test" for video ? We would absolutely depend on our eyes in a video comparison test, right ?
I'm trying to imagine a blind test in audio with my ears plugged...
