Nitpicker's paradise

[[email protected]]

Foresseeably Scottie is ready to keep
going on and on with his kind of argument:
1) "You're lying that Sean Olive's
article shows that "Is it different?" is
the wrong question to ask-(the right one being:
"Which one do you like better?")
2) I give numerous quotes to the effect that
was exactly what his conclusions were.
3) "Ah, but this is not why he didn't use
ABX"
4) We can now embark on the endless topic
of ABX.
5) 0.14 db difference is beyond the
hearing ability of most humans. Greenhil
allowed it because he felt it
did not invalidate his project.
He did not set out in the pop "Stereo Review"
on a research projectto define the limits of
audibility. He wanted to decide if one kind of
cable is better than another for consumer use
6) "Ah but 3 out of 11 panelists heard it
with pink noise".
&) The topic is now diverted into: What
exactly did Greenhill know or did not know,the
proper use of statistics and so on and on and
on. Nothing of audio consumer interest.
But what else is new? Looking through
Scotties activities in RAO all one sees is
endless nit-picking designed to show that
Scottie can win verbal dodges.

I said Scottie was a sea-lawyer. On second

thoughts I'll go further: he is a lawyer. Or more
likely, considering his intellectual level, a
paralegal looking for verbal loopholes for his
ambulance chasing boss. In any case he's not in
any profession where argument is settled by
experimental evidence. He does not even have
an inkling of what THAT is all about.
I repeat: he should stick
to politics. There if you can't shout louder you
can at leat bore your opponent and your audience
into semiconscioussness. He achieved that with
me.
He can go on all by himself as Tallulah Bankhead
said to a suitor when she was late for a bedroom
date.

Very interesting that you now claim everyone must have the same hearing

acuity.

Anothter blatan lie. I said no such thing.
All I said was that it was one outcome, probably not expected.

Wasn't that your argument from the beginning. Thats what I was
saying,
that Olives work isn't relevant to a discussion of ABX.

Nice to see you finally agree with me.

Conclusion not supported at all by the available data.

deLudo.... if you wanted to know peoples preference among 4 speakers,
please design a test protocol using ABX that would identify peoples
preference. Perhaps you will finally see why Olive chose not to use
ABX
and you could stop making crap up.

Google searching shows that I've posted the following text or its
equivalent, about 150 times, on groups that Mirabel has posted to:

"ABX is not a preference test".

Interesting. Please explain then why should anyone
in an
audio group take any interest in it.
And if it is useful for identifying differences
between
audio components in research give a few references to such use
published in a reputable research mag. like JAES. My info is that JAES
avoids component comparisons. Sean Olive is an exception. And he did
not. Who did?
And if itis not a preference test why don't you
advise
those who do an ABX comparison with a negative, "no difference"
result (are there any others?) to ignore it and buy what sounds
best to them
And finally do please reconcile your convictions
with
those of your collaborator and I think one time ABX co-developer
Carlstrom. He says:
(www.oakland.edu/-djcarlstr/abx_bino.htm)
"A second common misconception about ABX is the claim that an ABX
test result is not a preference......If ....a difference is heard,
selecting
one's preference is easy and completely justified"

Which one of you two broadcasts the miscoception? You or
Carlstrom?

How about the whole text deLudo?

"A second common misconception about ABX is the claim that an ABX test
result is not a preference: it doesn't tell which audio component sounds
better. While literally true, if an ABX test confirms a difference is heard,
selecting one's preference is easy and completely justified."

"I also think you should read this part as well: The ABX Double Blind
Comparison is set up as much as possible like the Double Blind Tests used by
pharmaceutical houses to prove new medicines are effective. The ABX
Comparator can of course be used in other experimental designs.
In the scientific method an experiment is designed in advance and run
only when the design is complete. The design sets what is to be tested by
specifying a hypothesis which the experiment tests. In an ABX Double Blind
Comparison both the hypothesis and its opposite are important:
HYPOTHESIS: The difference between Component A and Component B can be
heard.
NULL HYPOTHESIS: A sounds the same as B.
In the ABX Double Blind Comparison the goal is to statistically disprove the
null hypothesis to confirm the hypothesis. "

And from the page on placebos:
"In summary placebos are used because it is normal for people to feel
better when treated by a healer whether or not the healer gives effective
medicine or snake oil. This fact of feeling better when treated with or
without an effective treatment is called the placebo effect. That is the
placebo effect is the fact that people feel better even when given a
treatment that does nothing.
No one knows why this is true, but we have proof that it happens. I
emphasize this because critics often try to respond to the many theories of
what might cause the placebo effect. We don't know what causes it, but we do
have solid proof that it does happen.
In comparing audio components the same thing happens. A new component
will usually sound different from the old component. This holds true even
when the component is identical, as when a trick comparison is done of one
component with itself. Here too, no one knows why it happens, but there is
proof that it does.
Just as the placebo effect is removed from a drug test by a double
blind procedure, we can remove it from an audio comparison by preventing the
listener from knowing which component is which.
With this control, it becomes much harder for the listener to tell
which component he is listening to. But if he hears a difference, we can be
sure it is a real difference, not an auditory placebo effect. "


You really need to read more on the ABX site. You might actually learn how
wrong you are.

Tell us all about your vast experience with aBxism rituals. How many have

That will be a day when I'll be learning about placebos
from an ABX site. Placebos affect +/- 25 to 40 % of people studied
in the real life medical research DBT- with randomised controls,
representative population sample, proper ststistical basis etc etc.
Controls make it easier to recognise the suggestible one third of
the subjects. The 25 to 40% are very likely the same people
who but Rolex on the web and who get a lovely warm feeling
when they hear that they were always right- Citizen Radio is as
good as ART. Quite a few of them write for RAO.

In medical research the final outcome is checked by objective
findings,: course of the disease, bodily, Xray and lab changes.

Why do you top post?

The world is full of rhetorical questions, but most of them don't need

Oh yeah, for you to complain about formatting is one of the most

All the time, they look fine in Outlook Express.

Deludo's posts are the only I've ever seen that have the text scattered ove
the page that way.

Irrelevant ranting noted.

Having participated in an ABX test has nothing whatsoever to do with
understanding them.
It has nothing to do with their efficacy. It has nothing to do with their
being recognized as valid by the rest of the world's audio researchers.

I haven't participated in any medical ABX testing either, but I don't want
any new meds that weren't.

Don't you daydream about being a prosecutor in a prewar

Or a Vishinski? You'd make short shrift of people holding wrong views.

Regretfully he ommitted the full details of his epoch-making
discovery.
Presumably it goes something like this:
First researcher:"This guy has bacterial endocarditis.
If he doesn't get penicillin he's sure to die"
2nd researcher: "But I got funded to find out if this new drug works.
Let's give him one week of penicillin and then one week of my drug. If
at
the end of two
weeks he's still alive we'll give him one or the other and ask him
which one
was it most like Penicillin or my new one"

I have not insisted you partake of any drugs of any kind. Why whaddya got?

As to audio ABX, I've simply said thathad you done any you would have
learned more about real vs. illusory improvements. You insist that you
prefer to spend your money on improvements that probably don't acutally
exist, that's your perogitive.

You don't even know what I spend my money on, or how much I spend.
You are making biased assumptions, as usual.

You have discussed your methodology for choosing equipment.
I just followed along from there.

Even his "toopidity" is part of shyster armamentarium. To pretend to
be
what the French call "falsely naive", just one of us simple honest
folk, while slyly smuggling in outrageous insinuations about the
hostile
witness is par for the course for the cheaper kind of rental
"authority"
about lying and truthfulness of the ScottW kind.

Then you really are intellectually challenged.
I said I should use ABX.
You know that I own and use tube equipment.
You are claiming that I need to do ABX tests on my own

the cheaper mass market ss gear and my more expensive tube amps.
I really don't think that fits your agenda!!!
