In Reply to: I NEVER Said All Measurements Are Useless.... posted by thetubeguy1954 on December 28, 2007 at 14:04:12:
"Measures the best" is a meaningless statement if the differences in A vs. B measurements are too small to be audible.Often with audio electronics, and always with audio wires, that has been the result of controlled listening experiments.
An opinion about what component sounds best is meaningless unless the person providing the opinion can really hear a difference, and the difference he hears is not just an SPL difference.
That's why reasonable audiophiles use tests -- to reduce the probability of human error (that you subjectivists deem impossible because "I know what I hear and could never be wrong".)

"I know what I hear" is often an audio fantasyland
