And that's because -- and this is the crucial thing -- it
can't *ever* be a good method, for verifying subtle differnces.
In other words, in contrast to scientific methods,
the method advocated by
the main 'voices' of audiophilila, and people like yourself, is
*fundamentally and essentially flawed*,
as all researchers in the field of perception acknowledge.

DBT for audible difference is 'perfectable' -- sighted listening simply
*isn't*.


Neither one is perfect as it stands now.


That's like saying neither Barry Bonds nor Randy Johnson are "perfect"
hitters
because neither bats 1.000.
