Russ,I agree with you. I, too, remain convinced that some are sensitive to things that are way beyond our ability to hear. Whether it is CD and vinyl, or tubes and solid state, or digital amps and linear amps, or feedback and no feedback, some are able to discern (and are bothered by) things that others don't notice at all.
I don't believe it's super-hearing or extraordinary hearing as my opponents would claim I'm saying. Rather I feel it's just developed by those who have an extensive history listening of live music and of course playing an instrument helps even more. The more live music your ear/brain hears the more easily it recognizes when something isn't "right."
I'd say it's not much different than when you hear the voice of someone you've known for a long time (thus you'd have an extensive history listening to their voice) and notice something isn't quite right. The causes can be many, stress, anger, a cold coming on etc, but you just know something isn't right. When you gain an extensive history listening to the "voices" of saxes, pianos, guitars, clarinets etc, you'll also notice something isn't quite right. This requires no more super-hearing or extraordinary hearing than when you recognized something wasn't "right" with the voice of someone you've known for a long time.
