First i want to thank Archimago for all the work he does lately to illustrate audio knowledge for all to understand easy and colorful! In all these tests unfortunately will be people knowing how to use a wav editor to do their analysis. Afterwards, when they know by analyzing they just create interesting sounding buzzwords how they found out by listening. With 16/44.1 against 24/96 even the noobest noob will be able to identify it. This makes such an open listening test pretty pointless. Even in this nice test Archimago did set up people can cheat pretty easily. Archimago seems to have much more faith in human fairness than me i guess :) One short story related to this debate. On another forum is going a thread of how to find out Hires is worth it and on several pages they try to find a HiRes release against a cd version to test. No one has the idea to just downsample the HiRes release, lol!
