What is the truth?
by Paul McGowan
I saw a survey that suggested nearly everyone believes they are an above-average driver. In fact, it turns out that most of us believe we're not only above average, we're significantly better than just about anyone on the road. Of course, the majority cannot be above average.
And don't most of us believe we're above average in our abilities to tell fact from fiction?
Others may fall for BS but rarely us.
I don't know anyone that wanders around thinking they're wrong despite the impact our personal biases have on facts and truth. Whether we like it or not the sun rises each morning, gravity sucks, the Earth is not flat, and a violin sounds like a violin. Our beliefs and biases change neither facts nor truth.
Which is why it's so refreshing to be an audiophile. There's an ultimate truth to music's reproduction. The sound of live instruments.
It's worth the struggle to build your system to tell the truth.
