Rick, I have to agree. You make a fair point. Someone good at observing with one set of senses may very well be good at observing with their other senses.
Of course, one could also argue that someone who hallucinates with one set of senses may also do so with their other senses!

What are the most common logical errors that you notice audiophiles make?

I think audiophiles are rather inclined to pick up buzz words or phrases and use them as "explainations" without necessarily understanding what is truly occurring. It seems like having a name for something satisfies their desire for understanding. And they MAY be right, at least some of the time...
On the other hand most of us do not have a fully equipped electronics Lab. at home and for many these sorts of systems are quite out of their field of expertise. The latter actually may contribute to making audio a fun hobby. My dentist likes riding his horses but I don't think he floats their teeth let alone fixing them up with dentures!
