Even blind tests >are subjective.. it's not an insult. It's an argument I have heard in many a discussion and is most often used to dismiss descriptions of sound qualities that are difficult to quantify with regular tests. I take the view that sound is sound and something that can be heard, described and pointed out to **someone else** cannot be subjective, because it can in fact be easily recognized by another person. Most listeners are quite untutored in that they don't know how to listen for specific sound characteristics or qualities. However, that being said, most can also be shown how to look for certain sound characteristics, especially in an A-B situation. Roj
