"Because you can't even design an experiment that removes all other distortions and leaves you with nothing but the one being tested."You assume I don't know the process and theory of cancellation? Albeit at the levels we are talking about here I doubt it would be very effective.
You say I make flawed statements because I have not tested what I claim.
Fair enough.
But I will say you seem to lack much practical experience in electronics design. I have been in the audio/video/computer design business for 30 years now. That does not count my pre university hobbiest experience. While I cannot say 100% for sure that Teflon tube sockets do not make an audible difference due to lack of trying it, I can fairly accurately predict they don't.
Someone who is strictly a book worm, no matter how highly educated, will not understand that because they have no practical experience to fall on.
Where do you stand in that?
I realize one need not test every theory proposed provided that someone else has and published credible data of their work. But I sincerely doubt I or you will find and credible data that Teflon tube sockets make a audio amplifier sound different. I could be wrong but until I see something to the contrary outside of audiophile listening reports I will stick by my initial conclusion.
And I am not a scientist. Never claimed I was. I am an electrical engineer. I am paid to solve practical problems and get things done. Not ponder these minuscule interactions that occur deep to the right of the decimal point. Unless of course they do make a difference. If you are a scientist then it is your job to do exactly that. And when you discover something that does make a difference in engineering, you report it to us and we the engineering community heed it.
It takes both of us to move technology forward. Always has.
