Another way to put this, I think, is that while Arny believes that since there is no evidence of peer-reviewed support for what he calls "audiophile myths", it means that no evidence HAS or CAN be found supporting those propositions, while many of the rest of us takes that lack of evidence to mean simply that serious science hasn't "tackled" the issue (nor are they likely to do so). Various people including ourselves have done DBTs relating to several audiophile myths, and found that the promised audible benefits become elusive when tested with any amount of rigor. You can't find evidence if you don't look for it. There are people who have done their homework. We've looked for the evidence, but its exceedingly hard to find. I freely admit that we're the wrong people to do this, but science isn't so fragile that only advocates can make something that wants to work, actually workd. Now, If Arny wishes to fund a peer-reviewed university study on Audiophile Mythology, I'm sure he could find someone to step forward and tackle the issue, but I'm equally sure that aside from that eventuality, funding from the usual sources is going to be hard to come by. There you go - we see once again where people who advocate and have spent the big bucks on audiophile myths want other people to pay money to show them the error of their ways. It's called $200 for a magic HDMI cable but never ever spend $20 for a JAES preprint. |
