No research from me but as a side-note I've hung around a bunch of musicians in my time and some of them had no sense of sound quality when it came to stereo systems and even their band's gear. Yes, they could tune a musical instrument but when selecting speakers or PEQ'ing their band's audio system they where crappy as can be at that.This is not against you specifically. But I have read a few people repeat your statement.
Are there scientific researches that absolutely support the claim that "musicians don’t do better than “normal” people in listening tests"? If so, please share? Thanks!
Tastes differ, I can still remember when I first heard Bach. Was certainly not overly enthusiastic, music can be compared to math. You start with 1+1 and if you know enough math you can calculate where the moon is, if you want to land a rocket on it. Not all genres require better sound reproduction.
I would if it is next to me and currently the performers are not playing anything........
If you are at a live concert and a mouse squeaks in a corner of the room, will it bother you?
I wonder if there are something more scientific out there....No research from me but as a side-note I've hung around a bunch of musicians in my time and some of them had no sense of sound quality when it came to stereo systems and even their band's gear.

Is your google broken?I wonder if there are something more scientific out there....
Like someone went to university, tested 20 music school students vs 20 non music school student, etc....
Clearly.You don't need knowledge
I would expect those who made the claim to already have good scientific links ready to share.Is your google broken?
Mine works fine. When I have questions like this, I use it.I would expect those who made the claim to already have good scientific links ready to share.
How about you? Got anything good in mind to share?
: P
You respond is as expected.Mine works fine. When I have questions like this, I use it.
You have an nice day too, friend.You respond is as expected.
Please enjoy rest of your day!
Why are you here? You don't have golden ears, no-one does. What you hear from day to day will change with how you feel, your mood, how well you are, how warm you are - and what you believe you *should* hear. Listening sighted is meaningless to anyone else except your self.To hear the difference. You don't need knowledge, you can't learn this. Like everyone who graduated cum laude from conservatory. Not all become world famous. Good ears are needed to hear the difference. For example, you hear differences between the inversions of the same chord.
Not every audiophile is a snob. And the claim that every DAC sounds identical. Corresponds?!! with, the handling of a Porsche Cayenne is the same as the Dacia Logan.
Real blind testing is unnecessary. You hear the differences. I can still remember very well, went to listen, was curious how good such an installation sounds, which I absolutely couldn't afford.
5 digits before the decimal point. He put on a record. First thing I said, you got some wires connected wrong. He went to look and told me, you are the first to hear this. Real, amounts don't interest me.
To spam the community with some unique power supply for the rme dac. Sent me two unsolicited PM today about it.Why are you here? You don't have golden ears, no-one does.

Curious. The moment I heard Bach I heard something happening on a higher level. As time goes on, that sense of a higher level of musicianship grows. But it's odd, the more I'm drawn to Bach, the less important sonority becomes to me. I'm much more likely to listen to Bach now than, say, Debussy or Bruckner. Bach is more like the sound of music inside the head than music overheard. There's something elemental about Bach, like it's the bones of music.Tastes differ, I can still remember when I first heard Bach. Was certainly not overly enthusiastic, music can be compared to math.

Same thing @Miska said about a single number (common sense really)@Frank Dernie cleanup needed on Aisle 8.
It is certainly my opinion that having a single performance score for a speaker is probably absurd.
Most audiophiles think there is at least a subtle difference between DACS and don't realize that saying the DACS sound different is like saying the portion of a DVD player that takes the 0s and 1s that are read off the disk and converts them into video can make the same DVD "look different" on the same exact TV.
Possible, but not likely in double blind tests. The differences are so tiny that it’s very difficult to establish reliable, audible differences without “peeking”.It's possible that post-filtering components after the DAC could have an effect on sound if poorly designed.
