The reason that people can't hear distortion is that there is NO real "standard hearing test." As a person who majored in experimental psych, I can state that the only real studies of hearing are by the government to determine their needs. Most people in the USA are not capable of even hearing "distortion," as you put it, as it isn't a STANDARD provable in the market place. It is a thing which certain people, (sound of me clearing my throat...) determined to become self proclaimed audio gods, claim that they alone can hear DESPITE THE EQUIPMENT THEY LOVE TO DOUBT's claim that there is lower distortion than they or any other human can hear. I am done with the "super human" claims that ONLY THEY can hear better than any record, recording or input method ever devised. Give me a break.
something is not right here and it's on purpose!!!
lf you have the same source master on remastered digital and 1st press vinyl with the same volume, the digital sounds louder and more distorted with more intensity + is there anyway to remove that intensity from remastered digital because it sound like the audio has been run through a distortion pedal? How could legendary producers and mixers not hear this crap?

nitroxpro The reason that people can’t hear distortion is that there is NO real "standard hearing test."Huh? People most certainly can hear distortion, and that ability has nothing to do with standardized testing. By the way, extensive hearing studies have been done throughout audio history, from early experiments at Bell Labs to those that have been part of developing the mp3 codec and other lossy audio formats. As a person who majored in experimental psych, I can state that the only real studies of hearing are by the government to determine their needs ...You might want to get out of academia and into the real world. |
To make this more meaningful. Could any of the cable naysayers (that would be those who dismiss Radio Shack cables as worthless) compare her/his interconnects with the following ones? https://www.radioshack.com/products/3-ft-stereo-patch-cable?variant=20331862085 No explanation needed. Just an honest evaluation. To paraphrase some of the naysayers, if you have not tried them you are just bringing bad spirit based on your prejudice. (Disclaimer: I own and have compared these Radio Shack cables to the cables of same use priced in $400-500 range) |
