That's just it.
Why are you presuming that sonic differences that can be identified under blind tests are not heard during normal listening?
(For instance, I hear the differences between my tube and SS preamp during normal listening - the same characteristics I heard under blind listening).
It's actually quite the opposite for most. They hear the magical differences during sighted and it's gone when tested blind. I could agree with that statement regarding lossless and hi-res or even 256 AAC against ALAC 16-bit, but tubes against SS isn't some magical placebo that disappears upon double blind level matched testing to my experience. Completely different amp topology, completely different behavior with headphones / speakers. A 30-50 dB SINAD standard tube amp is pretty easy to distinguish to 90+ dB SINAD SS
