No you are not correct, just for a change. You are not discussing “facts related to audio science”, the rest of us are but you are doing the opposite and promoting pseudoscience related to audio science and falsely calling it “facts”. No, I’ve never met or even heard of a primary school kid who...

Indeed, I left those out. I was trying to leave a bit of a safety margin for “definitely” inaudible, to account for potential extreme conditions that almost certainly won’t exist for a consumer but I can’t say definitely can never exist. For example a potential recording where the peak level is...

Certainly, I was just citing examples of it being quoted. I read the actual calculation of it many years prior to these articles, probably around 20 years ago at a guess, either in an audio engineering journal or a scientific paper but I don’t recall exactly. In the sense that; something that...

TBH, I read the calculation of it many years ago but don’t recall where exactly. It’s typically quoted roughly, Eg: https://interestingengineering.com/science/quietest-room-world-sound-goes-die - “The absolute minimum sound that can be experienced in any atmosphere as theorized by...

Brownian Motion, although in practice the lowest level is somewhat higher than the theoretical limit dictated by Brownian Motion alone because absolute sound isolation can’t be achieved. The closest is MicroSoft’s anechoic chamber, which during the early hours one morning achieved -19.5dBSPL...

Just out of curiosity, is your only response, deflection? G

In case I was unintentionally ambiguous, I meant “narrowing it down” in terms of applying objective tests to eliminate other potential causes/factors. For example, not just deciding to trust my ears but objectively eliminating the possibility it’s some sort of perceptual error and, if the...

That theory is not necessarily correct. The actual theory is that the USB source goes to a USB DAC, which re-clocks the signal and prevents noise from the USB connection contaminating it’s output and in practice that is what happens with the vast majority of DACs. However, you have quite a...

Careful of Amir here, while I applaud his efforts to provide objective measurements and priority on ASR is typically given to science/fact rather than marketing, he has an agenda of his own regarding hi-res! We had a run-in with him here several years ago and he’s not beyond...

I think accuracy is a long way away, evaluation of exactly what information and scientific research is valid and applicable, and then weighing it all appropriately is seemingly well beyond ML currently. Not really, that is just the very first step and only of some science. If it is, then the...

This appears not only likely but extremely likely IMHO. It would explain why some/many of the sentences and sections in his posts are grammatically and syntactically correct while others indicate someone with a significantly poorer grasp of the English language. G

To be fair, there was some discussion about the difference between hi-res and oversampling much earlier in the thread but I don’t recall where. Ask pretty much any “audiophile” question and you get audiophile BS answers. I hope they sort out the learning model, etc. It would be interesting to...

We started from the position of either ignorance, “he hadn’t fully grasped the concept yet” or that he did grasp it but was deliberately trying to mislead others. Almost everything he’s posted since indicates the latter, falsehoods (including fake or misappropriated images)...

If that is the case (that it is not 1bit DSD) then it’s not necessarily inferior to PCM. In other words, it would be just as useless as hi-res PCM as a music distribution/playback format rather than even more useless! That it’s not particularly interesting, as it has nothing to do with...

But then you state this: Which is an obvious lie because I definitely did not acknowledge that, I acknowledged the opposite. I don’t think you could have come-up with a more obvious proof that you are lying (unless you actually explicitly admitted it). So thank you for as good a confirmation...
