so close you would have a hard time telling them apart better than guessing
Perhaps some might be guessing, but there are innumerable people who can tell the difference
on any program.
In firearms, there a units whose accuracy is so good that they are set aside for competition. These arms may be designated 1:100 or 1:1000 depending on their superiority.
The same is true for many manufactured item: Engines, binoculars,
electronics, etc. Manufacturers run Monte Carlo analysis based on component part tolerances. Just as there are 1:100 on the top, there will be the same on the bottom. They meet spec, but will never hold.
I once bought an amp a pal owned based on how it sounded in both our systems.
After a couple of weeks, I returned the one I bought as it was sonically inferior. On the bench, both measured the same.
When we shipped systems for recording studios, the final QC was a listening test. Some units were reworked, some binned.
