Prof are you really a scientist?
Or a crusader disciple of James Randi...Obsessed by cables like Randi was obsessed by spoon benders...
No audiophile and music lover need blind test....
Marketers of drugs or audio products perhaps need it, debunkers in a circus also or on a theater or in a show on tv....
Serious use of blind test methodology is very complex and implicate statistic in drug market for example...And anyway all the problem in audio life is the way by which we must educate our "biases" way more than the way to eliminate them... It is called a continuous series of listening experiments...Like a practicing musician on a new instrument coordinating hands and ears.. In my room i coordinated mechanical modifications about vibrations controls for example, electrical modifications pertaining to the noise floor level with devices of my own, and many many acoustical modifications ...
All that has no value for you if not blind tested? And if you work someday like me around your system will you wait for a blind test for each of the many hundred introduced modifications... Do you see the ridicule of your obsession? Do you see the misplaced imposition of blind test by you in an audiophile creative forum? and all this revendications to be a scientist from you, asking forcefully for blind tests are they not ridiculous ?
I fine tuned each one of my 40 Helmholtz tubes and pipes resonators and diffusers to actively control my link speakers/room...
And the only blind tests useful was for me accidental blind test, when some device is uninstalled or removed by accident, and my feeling said so, and simple private conscious blind test in the course of a work when a change in sound is borderline between real and placebo....
Do i need public blind test to satisfy you and mute your mantra ?
I installed a grid of Schuman generators, do i need to blind test each one addition or all of them in one test strike?
I created many devices of my own like special diffusers in set of suspended strings with passive connectors and herkimer diamond and tourmaline....
Do i need blind test to verify if they work or if it is a placebo?
Creativity cost nothing sometimes, stupidity generally cost way more....
