If you can't figure out the rotten logic in that statement by yourself "drmatt" you are truly hopeless. Hint for the clueless: In any experiment we try to hold as many things constant as possible. IOW, if we test the intelligibility while listening to a Glaswegian while listening over a high quality system with a Glaswegian, then we also use a Glaswegian for the test of the low quality system. Of course there is a problem in that the second experiment is affected by some learning that takes place in the first. On the chance "drmatt" that you are actually teachable, here is a good presentation about experimental design: https://www.sciencenc.com/event-help/examples/exp%20design.ppt > > How is this mechanism related to the concept of noting changes to tone > of hifi equipment? > ditto. The question is easy to figure out based on personal observation provided one has a reasonably open mind. Everybody with any real world experience has struggled to understand the meaning of speech under dire auditory conditions, except perhaps you, "drmatt". Please come back when you stop fighting with obvious facts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arnyk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64365 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106519 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
