A challenge to the "measurement" camp

I’ve watched some of his video and I actually agree on some of what he said,
but he seems too confident on his insistence on measurement. For those
who expound on the merits of blind test and measurement, why not turn
the table upside down?

Why not do a blind test of measurement? That is I will supply all the measurement
you want, can you tell me which is a better product?

For example, if I have a set of cable, and a set of measurement for each
individual cable, can you tell me which is the best cable based on measurement
alone? I will supply all the measurement you want.
After all, that is what you’re after right? Objective result and not subjective
listening test.

Fast forward to 8:15 mark where he keeps ranting about listening test
without measurement.

By the way, is he getting paid by Belden?  Because he keeps talking about it
and how well it measures.  I've had some BlueJean cables and they can easily
bettered by some decent cables.

Can someone interpret what the pigs (3) are saying?  I've never known what pig wrestling is like but this is close.:-)

You tried @djones51,  but obviously @andy2 , the person making the challenge, is not at all confident in his challenge, or he would have supplied the measurements when you took him up on the challenge.

mahgister,

"glupson do you listen to Scarlatti? "
I had to learn about him during music classes in elementary school, probably heard some of his works, but do not really recall anything more than "Domenico". Even that I am not 100% sure right now. In short, I have not truly listened to him. I will check him out.

Andy2  is blabbering about amps and feedback now. Where's the cable measurements? Who said anything about sound you wanted to know the best cable, obviously the cable that doesn't introduce capacitance, inductance and is shielded against EMI is the best.
