| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @audphile1 There's nothing lacking with my experience or my system. But I should not have said that bit about pointless arguments. For that I apologize. | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @soix New troll says what? You skipped all the levels and went straight to the name calling layer of the triangle. | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords You are biased to never hear a difference, so you won’t If that were the case, blind A/B testing would still prove the truth, because both cable enthusiasts and cable deniers are tested. Blind A/B testing proves that cables make no difference. ... | |
