We've always known that audiofags were delusional.
This study now proves it.

https://www.headphonesty.com/2026/01/audiophiles-fail-copper-banana-mud-blind-test/

>The original CD file
>A recording looped through 180 cm of professional copper wire
>Another through 20 cm of wet mud combined with 120 cm of copper
>One through 13 cm of banana plus 120 cm of coppe
>If wet mud and bananas don’t degrade the signal in ways listeners can detect, then subtle improvements from expensive cables are even less likely to be audible. In other words, the threshold for hearing real differences is far higher than marketing often implie

A new scientific study I've read proves that you're a faggot

speakers/headphones are 95% of the experience.
4% is the amplifier, 1% for everything else.
cables make a difference, just not one a common person can hear.

lmao

the crap audiophiles actually care about are just their own particular taste in signal distortion thoughbeit

>transmitted through copper, mud, and banana
>digitally
All three of those files were identical

Where does this fallacy come from that 'being an audiophile' is a hobby based around actually listening to something and just as a goysumer better than your neighbor sense?
From the name? That'd be pretty naive consider the history of the hi-fi scam 'industry'

The bar is very low then, you really don't need to shit on scam artists who flaunt golden ornamentation to trick guillible idiots with too much disposable income to buy into their scheme

Check the original source:

You can see it's analog line level. Also the mud and banana versions are shielded so it's a misleading title. The poster even admits there's audible noise with plain mud or banana.
