So it is entirely possible for two components to sound the same in ABX tests and yet yield different musical enjoyment.
Funny, in my perception it is exactly the reverse.
When AB(X)ing I’m focused on the sound. Comparing e.g WASAPI with DS I hear the differences. E.g. the piano forte is more detailed in WASAPI.
The moment I start listening to music these differences are totally irrelevant.
The beauty of Schubert’s string quintet in C - D.956 (most beautiful score ever written) is so strong that DS, WASAPI, KS, name it, with all there slight differences doesn’t matter at all.
So it is completely possible to hear differences when AB(X)ing but these differences are totally irrelevant when confronted with shear beauty.
