What makes you think the ProDI is more transparent than

Fer cryin' out loud, Nige, do you suppose it could be... his
ears?!

Which are connected to a brain that does all sorts of
strange processing, none of which is particularly good at
detecting linearity. It's a very good way of telling whether
he likes something, but without extreme care, doesn't say
much about anything else.

Yes, that's all true, Jon, but it's just more of what I said. I think
it's obvious that one's perception of sound "transparency" results from
the entire cognitive process, and is individual to the listener --
that's the point.

That is the problem. Transparency is really nothing more or less
than accurate reproduction - and that is more than measurable, and
depends not at all on the individual listener.
