Then you have pretty much declared yourself out of step
and, indeed, out of touch with an entire range of physics
and engineering in fields that have spent FAR more effort
and time on the topic than ANYONE in the audio industry.

There are fields in which signals a orders of magnitude
more fragility than ANYTHING in audio are routine, where
none of the outright floobydust and flimflammeryof high-end
audio holds.

Go take a look at the requirements for detecting and
preserving the signals in fields such as SQUIDS, radio
astronomy, encephalography, particle physics and
more. These fields left high-end audio in the dust
decades ago on pretty much every topic the high-end
claims to have made fantastic "innovations" and
"discoveries" in (including cables, jitter and more).

Also look at the amount of the stuff you see in high-end
audio that has made itself into other fields (hint: pretty much
nothing). Many of the so-called "innovators " in this industry
know little or nothing about the topics they choose to hold
forth on, and would be the laughing stock in any serious
scientific or engineering forum.

Yes, the laughed at Newton (well, no they didn't) and they
laughed at Einstein (again, no they didn't). But, as Carl
Sagan observed, they also laughed at Bozo the clown.
