I agree this is getting pointless, as no actual concrete evidence is forthcoming, but I don't want to make it appear I was intentionally misrepresenting what opaqueice said:

Sorry, I did not mean those quotes to apply directly to you, and I should have made it clear that I meant them as generic statements that I read all the time on this list. I truly apologize for any confusion. However, I did think that accurately represented your point of view given these definite direct quotes from you in this thread: opaqueice;582211 Wrote: > Well, to my knowledge no one has ever succeeded in hearing differences > between cables in a controlled level-matched blind test. Thus leading me to expect that you actually knew of several such tests that had been conducted, i.e., "numerous tests". opaqueice;581949 Wrote: > ...I'm a professional physicist....I concluded that audibility more or > less conforms to what common sense and science says it ought to.... Hence the "scientifically prove" statement as I thought you were claiming scientific validity for your point of view. BTW, I did not get this: opaqueice;582251 Wrote: > Bingo - that's exactly the straw man. Thanks for a good example. You sound like you are being sarcastic here. You did see the smiley, didn't you? That means my statement was meant as a joke. Or is it that pesky unreliable human perception thing?
