I've made the double blind test suggestion many times on this forum and to my knowledge, no one has ever reported back with any results. Plenty of people report back their (often very mistaken) concerns about why double-blind tests are not valuable. But never a simple n/N trials I was able to tell the difference between setup A and setup B. This is the minimum open to report audible differences at a place like hydrogenaudio.org (TOS #8) or else your thread is closed and your post trashcanned. I don't believe in being that extreme, and I do understand that some things are difficult to test (hardware modifications, as one can't easily go backwards). But there are many things that can easily be ABX blind tested (TT3.0 mods, cables, streaming PCM vs FLAC, etc. etc. p.s.
