Bas nut you really are embarrassing your fellow objectivists

> > DBT's are designed to find differences among components.> >

One has to be truly ignorant of double blind testing and the scope of it's application to say something this amazingly stupid. You might want to tell your hero Floyd toole that all those DBTs to determine preferences were all bogus.

> > For slow audiophiles like you, that means real differences, not imagined differences or different A-B volumes. > >

Dude now you are just spewing random objectivist sound bites. at this point I have to ask if you even know what the topic is at this point?



> > If no difference can be heard, when comparing a borrowed component with your own, for one example, it would most likely be a waste of money to buy that borrowed component if your goal was improving the sound quality of your stereo.> >

Dude this is just another one of your objectivist sound bites that has no relevance.

> > Blind tests are lie detectors for golden ears like yourself who think every component sounds different, can never prove that belief to witnesses.> >

Dude, seriously, how many straw men did you just burn there? Where did I ever say I think every component sounds different? Do you get the fact that I unlike you actually use bias controls via blind comparisons to help me with my audtions? and lastly, what the hell does any of this nonsense have to do with the question I asked you?

> > People like you who like to argue with anyone who has discovered "everything sounds different" is a myth for their ears and all other ears that have ever been put to a test.> >


My god dude, you are stuck in a tape loop. do you even understand the question that was asked?

> > People like you who prefer to attack the characters of anyone who questions the "everything sounds different myth" ... simply because your ego is all tied up in expensive audio equipment that may, or may not, make a real audible difference compared with the component it replaced.> >


Seriously dude get a clue. you are one to talk about attacking other peoples' character. I ask you a simple question about audio and you made no less than three character attacks on myself in you post. You have made numerous misrepresntations of my beliefs. You burn about a dozen straw men. but you never actually answer the question. So I will ask it again.


"How is it (DBTs) useful if, as *you* claim, the sighted bias returns as soon as one listens under sighted conditions? What has been gained? How is the DBT in any way useful to the consumer who reverts to their bias affected beliefs?"
