But if I take a blind taste test and cannot tell them apart, where does that leave me? Looking pretty dumb, I guess.I don't think it leaves you *Looking pretty dumb* unless you are in a supermarket where Coke is on sale for half-price and Pepsi isn't, and you still buy the Pepsi.
This whole business of DBT is a little overblown, judging by the heated discsussions below. It seems to me as if it were scientifically proven that a certain cable design were 100% accurate, then the only motivation for designing a cable outside the bounds of that accurate one would be to provide a cable to audiophiles that wasn't 100% accurate. I can see the ads for such cables in my mind's eye now: Our Cable is 110% accurate. Don't settle for less.
Another thing to consider is that while science may be able to demonstrate some audio component or cable to be more accurate than another, the initial point made about the differing degree of and/or the approach that individuals take towards perception render the results of any scientifically conducted DBT moot.
