Science deals far more in probabilities than absolutes. If DBTs were worthless, let's just toss all of the medicines we have today and head back to the 15th century. That's the problem with many audiophiles. They hear the tidbit that confirms their belief and then immediately discount the greater bulk that doesn't. I've even heard DBTs discounted because they are "stressful" because the listener is in the terrible position of making a choice. Meanwhile, the far greater and well documented peer pressure of making a choice in a sighted listening test is blithely discounted as nothing. In other words, the one-in-a-million odds are willingly accepted but the world is searched high and low for the most obscure of reasons to ignore the 99% probability. If that is "case closed" in your book, you're welcome to it. -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82067 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
