Did Amir Change Your Mind About Anything?

What is the impact of a photon of light when you hear an informative qualities perceived from two singers whose tone interact ?

None i know of...

That's right.  Sometimes the simple is the answer.  We don't need to dabble in philosophy or obscurity to analyze performance of something as simple as a DAC, audio cable or amplifier. 

You asked questions about the papers you presented.  I answered them simply and clearly together with proper back up. You keep saying I didn't and go on posting about philosophers.  No one is engaging you on the topic from your camp because stuff you are writing don't make sense or are relevant.

Instead of writing more, come back with the results of any controlled listening tests you have run that disagrees with measurements and are basis of your theories.  That is all that matters, right?  The sound we hear.

You don't even dare to run a listening test without your eyes involved. It is an insult to the word "evidence" to call that such.

Logical fallacy, ad hominem.

Logical fallacy, ad hominem.

Misdirection and projection. I am the only one posting results of listening tests here where only my ears are involved.  Do you have some or not?

It’s been shown how your listening "tests" and your claims about them are more than a bit suspect. In any event, the results of any tests I’ve been part of wouldn’t refute your tests, even if they were valid. That’s not how it works. Of course, your interest is to continue argument ad infinitum, so as to drive traffic to your forum and website. Of course, there's nothing wrong with that as long as you're honest about your intent.

@cleeds

 And it’s how you can just positively know how something will sound, without ever having gone to the trouble of actually listening to it.

Same way we know you can't breathe oxygen on the moon.  It is called science and engineering.  Again, your doctor doesn't have to become sick like you to diagnose what is wrong with you.  As I explained to you in my response, we analyze audio performance using many factors. Measurements are tools.  Conclusions are based on far more than that.

That is on top of the fact that I listen to a ton of new products I review.  I do more listening tests in a month than audiophiles do in their entire lifetime.  You know this to be a fact yet you keep repeating otherwise.  From my review of Neumann KH120 II just a couple of days ago:

"Neumann KH120 MKII Listening Tests
Going into this review, I expected to focus on tonality as I always do with my female reference/test tracks. But what I immediately noticed was the warmth of the bass out of this little speaker! Even on a track that doesn't show case this, there was nicely present low frequency response. And it wasn't just the ears that detected it. Low notes were accompanied by cool puffs of air landing on my nose! This was at 1+ meter/4 feet which again, is impressive for such a small speaker."

I went through the "trouble" of listening to it, right?  And this is on ASR.
