Why no “Break in” period?

geoffkait, what in god's name are you talking about? A single experiment can be perfectly valid if done correctly. "Sorry pal" is offensive. Do you really need to be as immature as rodman? All you have to say is that you have faith (The Cure) that "break in" exists for electronics and no mater what you tell me I am going to believe in that. I can live with that and I know for a fact prof can also. Then we can just discount everything else you have to say as a religious moment and be done with it.

Markpop, I am a doctor and I do have a complete computerized audio logic set up. We have to test hearing for certain professionals and thank you. You are quite correct. I meant essentially the same thing using the analogy of a cat meow vs a dog bark. I do know of that test and I wish he had done it on a few audiophiles using high res vs CD res. Vinyl I think most of us could pick up by the back ground noise.

geoff,

In your rush to judge you have, as usual, misunderstood the point. If you ever slow down to read before firing off a rant, it would have been blazingly obvious I wasn’t taking about what conclusions I would actually draw in the scenario I outlined, but rather probing rodman with questions about what conclusions HE would think to be reasonable.

rodman,

I asked you sincere questions to try and understand your position.

Ok, you don’t want to have a conversation where you think through your position to show anyone else it actually makes sense. I guess the whole "here are the reasons why you should take my claim seriously" stuff is just "blah, blah, blah" to you? (I infer this from your constant disparagement of any questions about your claims).

I find that strange, but if that’s how you like to roll, suit yourself.

>>>>>What a pretty thought - that you know all the variables involved and how to control them. Good luck with that! Oh, you mean some anonymous person out there knows all the variables and how to control them? Good luck with that too!

>>>>Yes, I know, that’s why I said you or anyone else can’t draw conclusions based on one test. In other words, nobody can. Your argument was a Strawman. The conclusions of two people that have different results based on one test can BOTH be thrown away. For example, one of you might have a cold. 🤧
