Unless the "thing"causes an effect unique to you, others may be able to hear, taste, smell what ever it is.
If others also detect it, then it is possible to test this perception by seeing if other people actually detect it or just think they detect it.
Remember your "hearing" includes what you see and know as that Mcgurke video demonstrates, it's why a hearing test has no other clues, it's testing your hearing alone.
At the edge of perception the statistical odds can show a trend, for example if 600 out of 1000 listeners said X cables made a difference with out knowing when they were using lamp-cord and and exotica that means something.
But if you can't hear a system improvement without having it pointed out or seeing it.....
