When an amplifier was compared to itself, 62% of the trials in the Stereophile blind amp test had audiophiles reporting they heard differences.
No change in measurements.
No differences possible.
Differences reported 62% of the time.
I'm sure Stereophile chose participants with "better critical listening skills" (that exist only in your golden ear imagination).
Stay in your golden ear "everything sounds different" fantasyland -- reality is too harsh for you to handle.
The only thing "amazing" would be golden ear audiophiles comparing a component with itself, and then reporting they heard no difference!
