Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

"something is going on, and we don't know what it is," --- Sure we do, overactive audiophile imaginations are going on

A test of wire directionality may be the easiest possible single-blind wire-swap test.

In one hour any listener could determine if he could hear wire " directionality"

You'll never do such a test, IMHO, because the results could contradict your audibility claims.

Avoiding objective audibility tests simply because YOU BELIEVE you know what you hear, and could never be wrong, is not science.

Anything can be "audible" if you believe strongly enough in it.

If there is some corrosion on an interconnect termination, just removing an interconnect, and then reinstalling it, could make an audible difference!

Any audibility claim can be tested.

Or just skip the objective tests ... and use an overactive audiophile imagination to report what you hear = that's got to be much more fun than those pesky tests (and you can never "fail")
