I'm inclined to disagree with your subject line. I trust that your comment is not meant to serve as you support for that statement. While some may be psychologically persuaded by sound quality, the actual perception and critical analysis of digital vs. analog sound to a real audiophile is keen enough to tell you, instantly, whether they are listening to an mp3, wav, aiff, etc format, or what type of turntable was playing the record, and weather they are listening to tape recorded sound from a record, or digitized sound from an analog master, etc. I don't think they would agree that it's psychological. I don't think I agree either. But whose keeping score?
