You should check out some of the PropHead threads from a few years back.
The true objective camp doesn't accept blind tests as valid unless they are double blind. They believe everything sounds the same except speakers (and phono cartridges) so they devised a test that would help support their agenda. The true subjective camp thinks everything sounds different. The reason I lean towards the subjective camp is because I've proven to myself that some things do sound different, which renders the true objective camp incorrect. So I don't agree that the objective camp is anything but completely closed-minded. Haven't decided on the subjective camp yet. :)
I agree blind tests are helpful. I've participated in many single blind tests. I don't agree they are crucial but a few of them have indeed failed to support my sighted listening. Typically they support the basic differences I hear but reduce the ease of which I hear them.
