@cleeds So, you are unable to explain how a digital cable can sound different? I assume you are thus stating your stance is not faith-based? How can you state your stance is factual, with just experience/testimonial, did the people who believed their Balance Bracelet actually worked having a factual experience? @rbstehno The “truth” I am using are the measurements that show no audible differences and my knowledge/logic of how digital data works. I’m not so stubborn that I would blind refute valid data... |
mzkmxcv How can you state your stance is factual, with just experience/testimonial ...I never stated that. Please don’t put words in my mouth. The “truth” I am using are the measurements that show no audible differences ...Are they your measurements? How can your correlate your measurements with listening tests that prove "no audible differences" if you refuse to listen to the product under discussion? I’m not so stubborn that I would blind refute valid data..You’re stubborn enough to refuse to listen to the product under discussion. That tells many of us here all that we need to know about you. Incidentally, I have no issue with your faith-based convictions. Faith needs no justification or substantiation. That’s the nature of Faith. Unless it was double-blind and quick-switching, one cannot make factual statements, only subjective.You pronounce this requirement and then exempt yourself from your own rule. That is what’s called "blind faith." And it’s fine to embrace blind faith. But what you’ve done is insist that your special brand of Blind Faith is supported by Science. |
For one thing by the time the data gets to the digital cable it’s already been corrupted by the scattered laser light and the vibration of the CD while the data is being read in the transport. So, who cares if digital cables sound different? The damage has already been done. Look for the root cause. 👀 Garbage in, garbage out. I know what you’re thinking 🤔...”But the Reed Solomon codes fix any errors during the data reading process.” 😛 |
@cleeds Why would I need to do such testing when measurements can be done? Listening tests for audibility thresholds are one thing, but as the data hasn’t shown the differences to be anywhere near audibility thresholds, it would be mostly a worthless exercise as the results can be accurately predicted. It’s like saying one television looks better than another, yet measurements show near identical performance, and yet you say I can’t claim they look identical if I haven’t personally seen both. Just like how one digital audio cable can’t widen the soundstage or music, one HDMI cable can’t have a more vivid image than another. The quality of the HDMI can’t effect pixel data, so visual testing is unnecessary, unless one claims differences do exist. |
