Love how they use the term "noobs" as if everyone other than them are so new to this and naive as can be when, in fact, they are calling out serious and seasoned audiophiles who have relied on their ears so successfully for all this time (decades, in fact) and know what they are hearing.

All things physical that are measurable are not audible.

All things physical that are audible we don't always measure.

Sound and hearing are not the same. Sound is real. Hearing is a combination of sound our ears pick up and our subconscious combined. It is not objective. Not in humans. You may very well hear something and no one can tell you if you do or not, but it does not mean it was physical sound. 

It's statements like these that give sane members here pause. Your reliance on an insanity defense (accusation?) is really getting old. It makes one wonder just how familiar you are with it.

We can leave religion out of this. 

What I said had nothing to do with religion in the way you're red herring it.

I hope you are aware the lowest confidence evidence in a court of law is witness identification. The law recognizes we can't trust our brains.

Yes I am as it's the result of witnessing a traumatic event, the crime itself. Tell me you're not equating listening to music with a traumatic event, unless it is for you, as that would explain everything.

Again, our brains lie to us. They hate to admit we have been scamed and will reinforce belief harder and harder.  Sound is real. What we hear is the lie our brain tells us.  If you believe it sounds better, your brain will convince you it does. Just it has no bearing on the actual sound.

So, you don't trust your own brain? You do know that that's how sound is processed, right...by our brain receiving signals heard by our ears? Is this based on some religious tenet of original sin or something? Or are you saying that our brains have been collectively duped but your brain knows better?

For those curious enough, here's a link to a mini rant by John DeVore about measurements:
