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?

@evemassacre @meljoann I’m honestly not surprised. Even without my hearing issues I doubt I could pick those out from each other. This validates my thoughts on not spending a ton of money on a fancy listening setup a little. Haha.
@attksthdrknss @evemassacre I’m just gonna throw my gold and platinum wires in the bin now
@meljoann @evemassacre Well, they’re still good for listening with, but you don’t have to worry about mixing them up now. Or maybe melt them down into jewelry?

Somebody will pay to recycle those ♻️
