@wvbrew@BillHuntBits@thedigitalbits Do you mean you've already received these replacement discs for the 4K Superman boxset, that fix all 4 errors Bill Hunt mentioned above? If so when did you receive them?
@seanolive@YouTube As usual with these A.I. LLMs, it gets things wrong, misrepresents the science, and omits salient information (e.g. that the vast majority prefer Harman). But then, so do many highly popular actual human podcasters/YouTubers...in particular when it comes to this paper of yours.
@VladVexler Hi Vlad, I can't speak for ME, but a low histamine diet has really helped me & many others with long COVID & related mast cell activation syndrome symptoms, especially brain fog/concussion feeling. I strictly stick to foods rated '0' (green) in this list: https://t.co/3Amw0WeC6G
@seanolive Preference ratings. MOA is prone to too many potential issues, such as more/less is better bias, complex threeway adjustment interactions, and the questionable choice of the B&K 5128 DF as baseline.
@sainsburys I'm experiencing the exact same issue, as are multiple other people too. There is clearly a major technical problem here with the ordering system, please fix this as soon as possible
@seanolive@oratory1990@BlaineLacross@ResolveReviews Bingo. Their obsession wth Theile's unproven (even disproven by your work) hypotheses and presenting them as fact is completely unscientific, and is clearly biasing their judgements. I doubt any of them would actually prefer a DF based FR if they actually blind tested themselves.
@seanolive@ResolveReviews @AudioMound Indeed. But more likely it tells us when reviewers' conscious & subconscious (e.g. price) biases have influenced their true taste. Here's another one who praises the 'high-end' IE900 for sounding neutral & balanced:

Cognitive bias is one hell of a drug.
@seanolive @AudioMound @ResolveReviews Except they don't. Here's just one example of them giving a positive review to an IEM that deviates significantly even outside their huge, fundamentally flawed preference bounds. Surprise surprise, they sell this exorbitant $1000 IEM on their web store.

@seanolive@ResolveReviews Just another reviewer misusing & misrepresenting your research & the 64% figure to push a bogus pluralist narrative. The study that figure is from in fact shows both Class 1 & 2 preferred the Harman target (left pic), & Class 3 preferred a FR following Harman fairly well (right):
@seanolive@ResolveReviews@canjam Yep, and making the bounds narrower won't help either, as we know smaller amplitude deviations can be just as or more audible and bothersome than larger amplitude deviations if the Q-factor is low enough. Preference bounds like these are just fundamentally flawed and misleading
@seanolive@ResolveReviews@canjam I don't think this is a good idea as it allows companies to release poor HPs with colored rollercoaster FRs & say, but look it's pretty much within the preference bounds! Just as https://t.co/AUlTag4bEm have done with their own extortionate +$1k in-house IEM collab the Dunu Mirai
@AskWithings@IPWright@Withings The cause & fix for this issue has been determined here: https://t.co/lH6zAknOmL
Please send this link directly to your software developers, tell them to implement this simple fix & release an update to the Withings app ASAP. 2 months with this major bug unfixed is unacceptable.
@listener800 @seanolive@crinacle Private? You proclaim your bold opinions on every public platform you can, & imply they're widely held preferences without any valid evidence. You do not speak for "people's" preferences. You can't even be certain you speak for your own true preference, unless you blind test it.
@seanolive@crinacle Exactly. And actual sound preference (rather than mere opinion) needs controlled blind tests to accurately & reliably determine, but reviewers never bother (yet still boldly proclaim their opinions as if they're widespread & rooted in reliable experience):

@seanolive@crinacle Oh I'm very glad you don't pander to reviewers :) Opinions is also the right word, rather than actual sound preference, the former influenced by unsupported conjecture, cognitive bias & vested interest in things like frequency response pluralism to give their IEM 'collabs' a USP.
