Dura - there is a nederlander who uses the handle KlausB and there is a thread on the Vinyl Engine about PCs and he says "I don't trust my own ears" - this is crazy. he buys on measurements - well who the hell is listening to the music - the measuring equipment.

Having not been to the toilet for a few hours I nearly pizzled myself when I read that….hilarious. You can’t trust your ears only equipment based measurements Haha
Given that your ear is the end of the line in terms of dealing with amplified waves- or sounds Haha if he likes what he hears but the measurements don’t stack up does he say to himself that his ears are wrong and choose equipment that is more distasteful to his ears because COMPUTER SAYS- YES.
Can we apply the same to taste?
So if you don’t like the taste of Brandy but it is expensive and you prefer the taste of beer do you only give yourself Brandy?
If you can’t individually choose your own taste, aural pleasure, preferences in literature/movies .women etc what is the point in having your own senses? Is beauty in the eye of the beholder? COMPUTER SAYS- NO Haha Amazing…
What is the point in being who you are if you deny what it is that makes you that!
I tell you what I don’t ****ing trust his judgment his intellect, his logical reasoning and perhaps his sanity. I must say if I had his senses I’d go off measurements as well- so come to think about it he is completely right. He should go and read off all the ****ing measurements and graphs that equate to all the pleasures and experiences in his life and snuff his own wick.
But Synergy Dura?
Never heard of the theory, I hope you have a pie chart to back this up?

It only takes one person distinguishing blindly and repeatedly the difference between two cables to prove that cables CAN sound different. What you cited goes well beyond that.
It doesn't prove that all cables differ or that all people can distinguish ones that are different, or that the difference is important or better or worth any particular amount of money. It just should end assertions that adequately constructed cables of different makes can not sound different and therefore one can say they do not sound different in any given case without even listening to them.

I know you believe you understand what you think I said, but I am not sure you realise that what you heard is not what I meant. Richard Nixon. Haha
Kidding- things that are worded too precisely often sound almost beyond comprehension, IKEA furniture instructions, detailed directions etc.
I agree with everything you have said.
P.S
I’m off to watch a TV program because the ratings are just peachy, who knows if gay becomes the statistical norm maybe I’ll just have to get into new equipment
worse still I might have to start actively listening to Kenny G and jiving in elevators if a decimal place shifts…..
