Is it worth it?

[Racerxnet]

In an objective forum, why are the subjective opinions allowed to continually spam away without any factual basis. Your audio equipment does not function on subjective engineering. I wouldn't want to stifle the ideas people present, but the theory should be presented in an objective manner with some actual testing and trial to either prove or dispel the idea.

It is pointless to discuss points when people already have made up their minds as to what is causing a particular effect, measurement not withstanding

My grass is pink today. Don't argue with me. I've already made my mind up.  😊

Ah, I see, you didn't bombard Chris with endless complaints. He must be exaggerating. Well, it happens... 😉

Why are you attacking March Audio? I have done the same with others and truely have no leg to stand on, but try to have enough self control to stay focused on the objective side of the conversation. Pot, Kettle, Black? I hope you have a great day! 🙂 I'm no angel either, just ask my wife...

Im actually going to start another thread that sort of covers some of this. There are a number of measurement techniques, but it depends what you are looking for what you might do.  On some measurements we can actually dig way below the levels of audibility.

 

However, the first and most fundamental thing to do is establish if are you actually really hearing something?  That means, as far as possible, removing those bias inducing clues and factors.  Putting controls in place so that you are not influenced by price, brand, aesthetics, what the reviewer, your mate or the "technical expert" said etc, etc.

This may include techniques that others may not subscribe to. I am looking forward to this new thread.
