Milind Kunchur Blind Cable Test

[RobL]

You new Thread was merged with this existing thread since it’s discussing the same study. Enjoy!

I don’t think these threads were referencing the same study…
This thread was referring to this paper: http://boson.physics.sc.edu/~kunchur/papers/Audibility-of-cable-pathways--Kunchur.pdf
The merged thread was referring to this paper: http://boson.physics.sc.edu/~kunchur/papers/Interconnect-cable-measurements--Kunchur.pdf

The second paper seems to be an attempt by Kuncher to verifiy if the blind test results of the first paper were due simply to the different “pathways” (ie. balanced vs. unbalanced inputs) or due to measurable differences in the cables themselves.

I see your point. But once Threads are merged it becomes impossible to unmerge them. I read the second Paper as a revisit and reanalysis of the original Study. Or a further discussion and slight refocus on some of the causations of the original conclusions. You are welcome to open a new Thread with second study. Please be clear in your intro that you wish to discuss these different causation possibilities. Then place a link to this thread as a background read and reference. Thank you for the feedback and suggestion.

Eh, the papers are by the same author and basically referencing the each other. I just thought it should be made clear to thread readers that there are actually 2 papers by the author. I’m not a “cable guy” so no dog in this fight, lol

We’re not arguing. I agreed with your point. Fully aware that both papers are from same Author. I think most readers here will have no problem figuring this out.

one version is the particular environment your grandparents lived in can have epigenetic effects upon you. So the environment effects you even if it isn't your environment.

Huh, I had not even heard that one. So as I was just seeing 70 years of PFAS chemicals contaminating us, then even more I feel toxins probably explain a lot of things like more autism (if that's true) and on and on.

Nutritional experience can have phenotypic consequences in subsequent generations, as is evident from studies in animals and plants. Here, Vågerö et al. find in a large three-generation cohort that access to food in the paternal grandfather associates with all-cause and cancer mortality in male...

Your ancestors' lousy childhoods or excellent adventures might change your personality, bequeathing anxiety or resilience by altering the epigenetic expressions of genes in the brain.

^A circular argument^

They may have tried that and got no results.


Looks like the AES is changing. Science, for the general population is becoming personal mythology and corrupted by woke. Proof is not necessary, just a strong belief. For example, genetics don't define male/female anymore. We've all seen the proof on many audiophile sites. Look at the difference in Scientific America in 40years.

“Woke,” as I understand it, is becoming awake to, and aware of truth. The opposite of being in the sleepy haze of unawareness; e.g., many who stumble into ASR become “woke” to the realities of audiophile marketing scams. Although to appropriate the term in any case is an insult to its true meaning.
