Always open to new ideas through good science however if you can provide it....
Just curious - what are your thoughts on the square-sine dilemma as described ITT?

I imagine one of two possibilities. The volume matched 12khz sine and square can sound different because:

- Differing error is introduced in differing signal generation and it is this error which is heard.
- Sounds above 20 khz can have musically significant interactions with sounds below 20 khz.

I have no idea. Never heard this test. But I find it interesting whatever the case may be.

Also, why in your opinion does DSD sound better to many than say 88.2 khz?
