-- Again (and again and again), it's because you demand DBT's as your "scientifically valid experiment". --
No, we simply ask for a scientifically valid experiment and audiophile sighted listening experiences is not one of them.
-- We conduct other kinds that are just as valid for our personal use. --
Now that's great, the only problem is that you are here on PHP attempting to claim that your personal experience somehow adversely impinges on the science/engineering which it clearly does not. The whole debate is sparked off by subjective audiophiles like yourself who claim amongst other things that controlled tests are not sensitive enough and uncontrolled sighted listening test are superior data points, which is clearly bull. Uncontrolled tests are employed in everyday life because of simplicity and efficiency not reliability.
