This is a great video. It does a great job addressing the placebo effect. I agree with a lot in this presentation.
Here's an interesting thought, who defines what sounds better? Who creates that standard? Does a $20,000 setup sound better than a $2,000 one? Or do we just think it should and therefore say it sounds better?
Keep in mind Ethan Winer also owns RealTraps and his underlying message is to treat your room with his products. Unless the information is from a unbiased (3rd party) it's difficult to know who to trust.

I agree. He doesn't seem to throw around too much BS. He also does a lot of controlled scientific testing, which I really like. And I think room acoustics play a huge role in audio. My point was that he might be a little biased.Originally posted by wettou
