That's fine, but you should appreciate that you are lying to yourself until you perform a blind test to prove it.



> you are lying to yourself until [...]

Not really. I'm not proposing a hypothesis that needs testing; I'm just reporting subjective anecdata. I don't need to test it, because even if I'm deluded it costs me 300GB instead of 100GB. Pfft.

"Lying to yourself" is silly talk; that implies that I'm knowingly telling myself a falsehood, which doesn't make sense. At worst, I'm mistaken.


>that implies that I'm knowingly telling myself a falsehood

You are aware of a common fact backed up by mountains of empirical data, a strong physical explanation, and fundamentals of information theory, but tell yourself this lie:

>I'm convinced that we can "hear" frequencies well above the reputed 20KHz limit of human hearing

This is a lie. You tell it to yourself. You must see this.
