As a teen frequenting hifi shops, a friend of mine actually used to say that that line to me about amplifiers and their distortion measurments. "So good you can't hear it."I'm not saying I could hear the difference within the "man on the street"'s system or the differences between some crappy 1970s amplifiers (and yes, I think that 1970s transistor amplifiers were horrible for the most part).
I feel the man on the street probably would hear it if he listened in the context of a system of decent resolution. People don't think they could hear the difference, because they have never had exposure to such systems. It's similar to people bashing critics who talk about the benefits of a tweak or differences in component performance in their system.
People often ask me how different can it be? I ask them if they hear a difference between their stereo and a live, unamplified performance. Then I suggest, what if you could get part of the way there?
