In theory, no, but theory doesn't explain everything. Just trust your ears.

There's no need for audiophiles to fret about pylons at play, just buy a fancy mains conditioner.

Yes I can, in my head... definitely perceive a 'thud' - get why you posted this.

Now you come to mention it, you're right. And the thud disappears when I'm unsighted

Nope nothing at all.

Nope nothing at all.

Maybe your gear (or ear) isn't sophisticated and discerning enough?

I cannot watch the GIF without having the thud sound in my head - but I know I'm not hearing it through my ears. I'm hearing it the same way I hear words in my head when I'm reading.

Yeh..I hear the thud..it's louder than the ringing in my ears but softer than the voices in my head.

So audio is as much about what we see, or think we see, as it is about what we hear or think we hear.

And it looks/sounds much darker wearing a blindfold.

Better to just enjoy the music then.

I don’t hear anything at all. I perceive an animation of some electricity pylons skipping. Seems a reasonable and accurate perception to me. The animation isn’t quite right in that the shake of the frame should be delayed by the amount of time it takes the shock wave to travel to the viewer.

I hear it. I wonder would I had I not been primed by the word “thud” in the title?

Nothing. You can pretend you hear it though....the power of suggestion.

Can you hear the boiiiiiiiing, boiiiiiiiiig, boiiiiiiiiiing, woo-hoo, boiiiiiiiing, boiiiiiiiiig, boiiiiiiiiiing, woo-hoo, boiiiiiiiing, boiiiiiiiiig, boiiiiiiiiiing, woo-hoo?

Granted, the second woo-hoo is a bit hard to miss.

Just like with audiophool mains leads.... and fuses... and lots of other things that make no difference but many claim to hear...
