I read some of this stuff with a sense of astonishment....the contributors so sure that 'measurements' tell us all we need to know are as ridiculous as someone who says that if you examine the chemical constitution of food you can be certain of what it will taste like.....without any acknowledgement of the role of the person who actually eats it!
Even if the 'Sergeworld' view was true it must require two (necessary) conditions:
1) That measurements are complete and involve the actual conditions of use (ie, distortion under dynamic conditions and so on.). In fact this set of conditions is never met...there are far too many variables.
2) Even if condition (1) were ever met, you would then need complete knowledge of the way the human brain intrepets and 'understands' these signals. (which might vary from person to person.).
These two conditions are never met, because it would be far too expensive and complex to do so. Which is why, Serge et al repeatedly make claims they cannot substantiate, even in the terms they claim to understand and accept (science.)
Of course there is another way.....it is called listening.
