Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube!


Is it just me, or is it total nonsense when YouTubers play music to suggest you can hear a difference between components. Totally drives me crazy and I discount anything they have to offer from that point on......

I am a cognitive psychologist and have done a great deal of research on consumers’ perceptions of products using a method based on simple similarity judgements between pairs of products. So, while it is fairly straightforward to determine whether two videos seem the same or not, the tricky bit is to know why any perceived differences seem different. Actual differences might be masked in a low-quality medium such as YouTube. However, determining whether a perceived difference is due to the product or the display technology is the tricky bit. In such cases you might want to run down to your local dealer and check it out for real.

At this point, I'm totally shocked that folks that would subscribe to this forum, and know a thing or two more about HiFi than the average bear, and the reproduction of quality sound,  would still defend this nonsense........

 

I was talking about YouTube video Quality music.  I wasn't talking about YouTube music which I don't think deserves to be even recognized.  I forgot it even existed.

 

I wonder if all the ones who say you can't hear a difference on well recorded YouTube videos stream music. Just saying.....
