Most "audiophile" is placebo. We did tests with higher end speakers, $2000-5000 stuff, nothing crazy from Maggies to Marlos, to B&Os to compared effects of amps, preamps, cables. We did a regular test and most of us felt the higher end stuff sounded better. Than i decided to do a blind test. The cheapest stuff usually win.
