Apodizing filter

Every time without fail the difference that I thought was really quite obvious disappeared.
comes from long listening sessions vs rapid back and forth switching..... one of the flaws of DBT

its not like i never tested stuff myself https://www.audiocheck.net/blindtests_level.php 0,5db is easy, it gets interesting if you test 0,2db

yea you could easly cheat with a spectrometer but i dont see the incentive, unless you guys think "i have to proof myself to not stand their as a fool", i dont give a rats ass what you guys belief or think
i didnt bother todo more than 99% confidence tho, it was the first test and i dont bother doing more
"In some eccentric cases, fractions of a decibel are quoted"
:D

You know as much about how to do a controlled test as a monkey knows about brain surgery.

sorry i didnt dim the lights, you are right

EDIT: what flaw you have spotted now? or is it the unproofability if this test was legitimately done? i dont care m8, do the test yourself and be happy with what you get ;)

That is 0.5db at 440hz sine tone (not real music) and you got that wrong 25% of the time.

Show us the one where you can tell 0.5db at 20-22khz and 0.2db at 15khz or whatever the other nonsense was.

its still highly unlikely that i get on these test each time by luck like 70-80% on my first try, you are free to believe that tho

33 spoons speak more words than a sign
EDIT: dont forget the cellphone!

My point was that the test you showed doesn't even come close to supporting your previous assertion.

0.5db at 440hz is not 0.2db at 15,000hz.
and a slow roll off over the range of 15-20khz is not a single sine wave, far more audible in my book

I am not interested in your book.

You have nothing to back up your assertions and you just talk more nonsense when your nonsense theories are questioned.

That is the polar opposite of "science" which leads full circle to why you bother posting here, why not talk with people that buy into this nonsense, there are a bunch of them in the tweaks forum, they love that crap.

This is a guy who deserves the abuse others accuse us of.

here you go, probably my last attemp to clear up this BS :) but it doesnt even matter, you guys come up with new theories how it cant be, sooo...

hit me a PM if someone is interested in the files

i probably missed the mark at 0,5db at 20khz but (in my book) this is close enough and you would say anyway its not audible...

EDIT: sorry no spoons to see here tho :P

So you admit that you "missed the mark" with your 0.5db at 20khz claim despite insisting you could hear that easily because you knew what to listen for.

Seems you didn't know what to listen for after all.

Now something else is good enough "in your book", but it isn't "your book" that matters in this discussion because it is "your book" that is in question.

What else have you "missed the mark" on do you think ?

classic, in any other conversation the low pass filter would have been inaudible too, so what are you even talking about mate

i already used the most gentle lowpass setting

i mean i said "0,5db at 20khz and 0,1db at 15khz" but honestly? regarding this topic a low pass filter is more real to a reconstruction filter than an high shelf filter is that would perfectly fit my description

i dont think there are more marks to miss here ;)

and pleeeease..... just dont try to find excuses now why it was audible.... accept the fact that reconstruction filters can be heared if you know what to listen for...

and specially aknowledge that real world listening is not always the "best case scenario"
