Hi,Let's try an example...take soundstage. That's a term I like
because it is purely subjective. You can't measure a soundstage.
Suppose I improve the S/N ratio of the power supply in an amp by
adding better filtering. Now I listen to it and I declare that
I've improved the soundstage of my amp. Didn't I just:A) State that it sounds better than it did before
B) Since it sounds better than before it must
have made an audible change or I wouldn't have
stated A)The only alternative is that its all in my head, which doesn't
jive with my experience.BTW, I don't ascribe to the any change is better. I've listened
to my system with several different power conditioners and haven't
liked any of them. This was again counter to what the "crowd" was
saying.
