Frankly, I consider all claims by other listeners AND SOMETIMES EVEN MY OWN LISTENING to be suspect, because of expectation bias, group-think (which I think might apply to Clark Johnsen's demos), and other psychological vagaries. What cracks me up is the certainty with which some audiophiles voice their opinions - as if they were God-given revelations! For instance, I (and others) have a higher opinion of CD SQ than you do. Who can say which of us is correct?
Amid all the sound and fury, I guess what I'd like to see is more MODESTY in the recounting of our listening experiences. ;-)
