What are we objectivists missing?

A little silly question. We do whatever we like, the way we like. You do you, I do me. Simple. What’s the fuss.

One thing that objectivists are NOT missing is protesting. Too much protestations in the cyber space for some unexplainable reason. I always wondered why.

Not protesting  or judging at all, just wondering if anyone has any speculation as to what measurements are missing.

Now talk about snarky:

I just completed the work on a device that measures sound quality. I call it the SQascope. Send me your money, lots of it, and I’ll send one with directions to you in a plain brown wrapper and you can measure all your cables and the cables of your friends and neighbors. It’s exactly what you, as an objectivist, is missing.

just wondering if anyone has any speculation as to what measurements are missing.

Unfortunately, we don’t know what we don’t know. I’m pretty sure that within 10 years someone will come up with a way to measure distortion in an audio signal that is currently unknown to us.

Not snarky at all. You asked what we are missing. We are missing the ability to measure sound quality. Until we figure that out, we will have to use our ears and become the best listeners possible.

Your concept is correct but you have to measure everything that matters and some things like frequency response and distortion are only part of the story. And these examples are essentially static measurements and music is dynamic not static. so even if you use only some measures, not all, at least use dynamic measurements like dynamic linearity which while not the entire story by far does correlate subjectively well to fidelity to the input
