In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud — 'The mud should sound perfectly awful, but it doesn't,' notes the experiment creator

Who knew listening to a banana sounded so good?

I generally find audiophiles to be a pretentious bunch, so this sounds about right.

    I could hypothesize that the difference they’re hearing, if not psychosomatic, would at that point be more likely caused by the speakers/headphones/tubes/amps warming up.
