Why is science just a starting point and not an end point?

but how music performs at listening levels is the deciding criteria. In that regard science fails miserably.

That’s your opinion

Some of us do have hearing that is both sensitive and reliable enough that we don’t need to a scope to tell us if we heard something or not.

That’s is really wishful thinking and believing your hearing is better than a bat.

All "good equipment" is designed and made using the "Laws of EE" (Electronic Engineering), and the measuring and test gear that designers use to do it with.

"If" they don’t like what they hear or measure after it’s designed and built, good ones will go back again and again and redesign things in the circuit, and re-test, but do it again using all the same EE laws and test equipment, there’s no voodoo involved.

IF THEY DON"T DO IT, DON’T GO NEAR WHAT THEY ARE SELLING, BECAUSE THEY ARE SELLING YOU VOODOO!!!

These two statements in the opening thread, are pre-concieved, and sound like the answers are formed already.
And they should read, to get audio techs to answer and give the other side.
