Doesn't a theory still require a causal link, though? I'm not being snide, I'm actually really curious now.
Also, unrelated but we probably shouldn't be getting too down on the social sciences in this forum. Psychoacoustics happens to be one.

And anecdotal evidence is important. We take photos of distant galaxies, send probes to other planets, and those initial forays are not much different than the Voyages of Discovery
Psychology is a social science.The people I know in psychoacoustics are most definitely NOT in social sciences. They are looking at biological mechanisms, neurology, learning mechanisms, etc. That the results is not yes/no does not make it a social science.
You're using a lay defn of anecdotal, not the one commonly used by scientists.
Yes, that in numerous double blind listening tests, people have NOT been able to discern an audible difference to a statistically significant degree.If the null hypothesis is a changed to: “There can be audible differences between competently designed and adequately powered electronics (amps, DACs, streamers), and those that measure the same can sound different“. Is there evidence to the contrary?

Hello,
I don't know if this article has been posted here before, but just in case it hasn't:
https://www.researchgate.net/public...mulation_of_frequency_responses_of_headphones
Anyway, I think it could have some implications for both:
- S. Olive's study and hence the Harman circumaural headphone target curves, given that the different tested FR curves of various headphones were simply emulated,
- EQ in general, since apparently that could produce audible non-linear distortion, especially at levels > 80 dBA. Buth one study did use C weighting, while the other used A weighting.
What are your opinions on this matter?
It's already widely known on this forum that EQ can amplify distortion and make it adible/more audible. The headphone reviews on here touch on that.I'm still a newbie here (but you already knew that, right?) , so if possible, I'd like to have some expert opinions on this study, anyone?
It's a psychoacoustics study, so I had hoped it'd interest at least some members here.
@preload maybe?
whatI like that you share different market research on this thread. But I don't understand why you lose your time. There are already some verified websites to find different predictions and research on the market in every domain. I am already informing myself on such websites for already two years. It is a quick way of gathering industrial information for every person in business. I am using marketresearchfuture.com, where I can always find the latest news about the market and its change. This is the first thing I read when I wake up in the morning.
