What are we objectivists missing?

I have been following (with much amusement) various threads about cables and tweaks where some claim "game changing improvements" and other claim "no difference".  My take is that if you can hear a difference, there must be some difference.  If a device or cable or whatever measures exactly the same it should sound exactly the same.  So what are your opinions on what those differences might be and what are we NOT measuring that would define those differences?

Ah, if only the sometimes fickle human mind/hearing system was as straightforward and logical as that!

Subjectivists do have things going for them.

They do help to keep a lot of people in jobs for one.

Secondly they also help keep the used market thriving as they flit from one brand to another.

 

I should know, I was one.

For a while it was fun ride, but in the end it got tiring.
