But why should you believe that other people's subjective impressions
are any better than yours? Suppose they could hear something that you
couldn't. Why spend extra money on your own system for an "advantage"
that you can't hear?

Bob,
I suppose that my subjective impressons are about as good as most. No
"golden ear" but normal hearing, I think, though not tested in many years.
However, I have a very limited number of subjective impression experiences,
and I believe that there are many audiophiles out there who have impressions
to pass on about systems and cables I have never ever seen, much less heard.
I've asked for reports, but received nothing.
The lack of response begins makes me wonder if RAHE fails to attract many
audiophile subjectivists. I don't see why that should be, as the name "high
end" should attract thousands. Or maybe they come, read, and depart after
seeing that there is a strong objectivist tenor to discussions on RAHE.
