Bad experimental design, swapping phones and cables without being double blind, does not reduce placebo effect. Why not just say, AppleInsider guy thinks lightning headphones sound better.
Anecdotal and pointless...
I'm not sure why this is a video instead of an article. Seeing a guy wearing headphones doesn't really add anything.
Yeah, this is an odd story. Just watching some dude swap back and forth himself doesn't really do much for me. I'd say if you did a double blind listening test with a handful of professionals and maybe a couple of regular folks mixed in, it would be more credible.
