Unfortunately we read those writers that have been mentioned and look their way for suggestions as what to buy! We never think of the “science or engineering “ behind the writers , if it even exists. I would be shocked if anyone of the writers understand the dB scale, etc etc. I’m am sure none have any working knowledge of the workings of the inner ear!!!!
their retort is “I have experience “ At what?
Typing!
I find the articles laced with “humor” and what at one time was termed vulgarity , so as to divert the reader from the lack of scientific evidence !
psychoacoustics is complex and should not be handed over to those that have sustained themselves writing about what they have little understanding!
