Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums?

“it’s like talking to someone you don’t know. Commenting on something you haven’t heard in an environment you never been in then saying there is not a difference.”

No Calvin, it’s not like that. It’s like informing someone who thinks they can see microwaves and x-rays that human vision is limited to red through violet wave lengths. It’s like telling someone who claims they can run 100 mph that no human can run faster than 23-25 mph. There is nothing extraordinary about your stereo or the stereos of other audiophiles or your hearing acuity or the hearing acuity of other audiophiles that is unknown, unresearched or magical. Human hearing thresholds are not mysterious unknown quantities. It’s also well known and documented that humans will tend to perceive differences where none exist when hearing the same thing with a time gap in between samples when listening for differences. That is normal for human beings. So it’s like telling you that you are a normal human being like the rest of us. And there is nothing uncivil about informing audiophiles about these realities. It’s actually very useful information.

@scottwheel good luck with your opinion. Take care. You go on and on and on. Honestly, I wish you would just look past any thread I post. There are those here that want to have real discussions and not have your opinion pushed down their throats. Take care. Every thread I start here you go!  lol.  😂 

@scottwheel you can hear my system through this forum post? Ok I get it ! 

@thecarpathian 😂 man. He will not. He already posting his next response he doesn’t have time to edit.

It almost sounds like you're living with absolute certainty that we know everything there is to know. For example and let us assume that you can't hear 20khz or above. Now when you play a 21khz and 22khz simultaneously there is a possibility of a doppler pattern that occurs deriving a 1khz summing signal to your 1khz band, which you will definitely hear. It ain't all that straightforward dude..

There are various phenomena observed in nature for which we know how provide some type of empirical solution. We could simulate some other phenomena with physics models and so on, but, we can't always validate with measurements. We don't have the capability to measure everything or even know what to measure. There are very known limits to measurement instrumentation or even the design of certain types of experiments. There are all kinds of PhDs working 16 hour days because of the above mentioned. If they all take a pompous arrogant stance that "what they do not know shall not exist!", that would be very dumb.
