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.

    The wire isn’t generally something that’s focused on though, is it? Like everyone knows those gold plated cables are scams. I thought the quality of the audio or the speaker/headphones were the big focus.

    Also, sample size of nine people and two of them failed to fill out the survey correctly lol
