Not a hobby , I've done over 3,000 designs in 40 years - 300 with the guy that was the president of Vega Wireless I hold 3 patents so far including one that looks very similar to the internet of things

As to sensory testing - I'll let Prof Land discuss human hearing and testing - it gets a bit deep- it is a college course from Cornell:
Note where he shows the variance at about 3:37 in regards to just localization.
Now compound that with the variability of each individual with regard to perception of spectral content, which usually manifests itself in perceived distortion, each human will NOT aurally sense in the same manner.
And if you're really bored you can watch this on human hearing, how frail it is, again how localization works - again an MIT college course:
There's more out there.
Trying to quantify the quality of audio strictly using human hearing that is proven to be variable across individuals is at best hopeless.
Now using the tools that Amir and I have, we can get into gathering real, impartial and empirical data.
Your argument flies in the face of reality... I'm so sorry.
