Re: You're Blinded By Believing The Science Being Used Reveal Everything!

One thing scientists can test for is whether or not two different things sound the same to the point where people can reliably distinguish them. The reason scientists haven't pursued this science of sound recording and reproduction at a basic level is that most real scientists frankly don't give a damn about it, the problem isn't interesting to them. There's also no big money in it for them. That leaves it to audio engineers to take up the yoke and quite honestly, they don't seem to apply much effort to pull the weight. It's easier to just plod down the same old ruts they are used to. Don't believe it? I've suggested to John Curl twice that he develop measurements which correlate to what he hears since he says the ones he can make don't work for him. So far I've gotten no reply. It's a lot easier and more fun to just keep experimenting with new amplifier and preamplifier topologies. More profitable too.
