In future years our current understanding of the sensory systems in the body - in all living creatures - will seem simplistic, and will further bury by sheer force of accumulating lab data the ridiculous notion of spontaneous generation and accidental advancement of life. The rude treatment of hearing versus seeing that is espoused by audiophile skeptics is caused by another sensory system, the Posterior Numismatic System, which sends impulses indicating the thickness of the wallet one sits upon, influencing the perception of the sound of the system.
I'm only half joking. All audiophiles have deep biases when it comes to spending money, and they are kidding themselves if they don't think it influences what they think they hear, or don't hear.
