> Of course sound is subjective.Sound is a physical phenomena. It's also a rather crude method of communication, IMHO. Sound is, basically, bits of air banging against each other. It isn't nearly as interesting as the crazy physics of light, or the amazingly complex chemical sensors in our nose and taste buds. Our sense of hearing is just a very evolved sense of touch.
The perception of sound, like the rest of our senses, is very subjective. Amazingly subjective, in fact.
> If you are saying that there is a science to the way things REALLY are, you are just making yourself look like a stereo review tool
Sorry, I don't understand that sentence. Scientists are tools of Stereo Review? Wow, even after death that publication has some clout! Funny, I don't remember them measuring anything, though, while Stereophile seems to measure the crap out of everything.
> when in fact you are promoting a very low end idea.
Jeeze, I wouldn't want to be considered "low end!" I'll have to buy some Kimber Kables or something to improve my image.
