"I didn't notice the main post of his that came to mind, but it may be somewhere in there. Thanks."
I didn't find a perfect match, but the main gist of your comment is present in the posts.
The word "broken" is used several ways. These include defective equipment (e.g. ones with clearly audible hum), ineffective experimental procedures, and incorrect reasoning. As you move down this list the clarity of the them "broken" becomes obscured. All an all I don't object to the use of the term, but it allows a lot of wiggle room for argumentation. In particular, it allows for rejecting any positive test results, something that is important to die-hard skeptics, including, perhaps, James Randi. (And something that I would do, too, were I to be involved in a $1,000,000 wager.)
After reading a number of the posts, what I found most objectionable is the derogatory connotation put on "audiophile". There may be some who have the characteristics described, but most of the audiophiles I know do not deserve this abuse. (I could care less, personally. I prefer the appellation "music lover" or "audio engineer".)
