What the doctor has determined is that there is no physical reason (as far as his/her medical knowledge goes) for you to have a toothache. So if your tooth still aches then you need to look elsewhere for the reason. Applied to audio, what Julf is saying is that there are valid scientific reasons for wav files to sound different from flac files so the reason for one sounding better than the other mus lie elsewhere. And if that "elsewhere" is via sighted listening, well then that proves absolutely nothing. As Pippin stated if one gets a warm and fuzzy feeling from one's fancy cables or high bit rate wav files great.
