Default Seeing/hearing and sighted/blind tests

I am not *underestimating* the average audiophile's ability to recognize
artistic differences in performances. I beleive you are *overestimating* the
ability of your DBT to differentiate anything musical - perfomances or audio
component differences. After all, the test doesn't seem to be able to
differentiate amplifiers whose measurements are very different...


If you severely reduce the resolution and sensitivity of the
test instruments to more closely approximate the basic resolution
and sensitivity of the auditory peripheral system, you'll find
that amplifiers measure remarkably alike.
