In Reply to: Audio critics should publish their hearing tests posted by triamp on March 21, 2017 at 16:39:14:
I am older than most.
Yet, when I sit with younger people, including audiophiles - who certainly have far better hearing from a measurement standpoint - I will consistently point out things in the sound that they simply missed.
Do I hear as well as these folks do? From an audiologist's standpoint, definitely not.
Yet this phenomenon occurs as much today as in the past.
So I do not worry about reviewer's technical measurements. If they have great measured hearing but cannot hear differences in components or set-up, what good is that?
Best regards,
