"How can an effect disappear when they were so certain it exists?"

It would appear that you haven't much experience doing double blind tests that attempt to discriminate between marginally different sounds. After this has happened once or twice one can begin to lose one's trust in one's own senses and mind. There are a number of theories that try to explain why this happens, but I'll leave that to others with more expertise in the "why" of human perception. It does happen, however, a case of "what" being more important than "why".

These tests are definitely educational. But they are more educational about ourselves than about the audio components being tested.
