Re: Still a crock

Still dancing around the question, eh?

>If they did, then the virtually universal practice of voicing components by ear would be rendered unnecessary.

There is still a small matter called preference and that varies from individual to individual, voicing by ear does not mean that the parameters are unmeasurable, in fact folks have been known to voice by ear, then measure the final prototypes, those measurements then form the basis of the actual product.

>Why would any human intervention be necessary if the metrics were conclusive?

As stated many times in the past, metrics measure performance, not user perception or preference.

>Specs don't tell us the whole picture

Specs were never intended to give the full picture, in this instance I asked for measurements not specifications, big difference.

I take it that you obliquely accept that those parameters are measurable, am I right?
