The issue with that is that it is even harder to make that test "non-cheatable". One approach I tried was to use material that doesn't contain much HF energy (so that anything beyond 22 kHz drowns in noise/dither anyway), such as choral music/pure human voices. That was of course criticized because "of course you don't get any difference with material like that". > That would certainly be interesting, but an alternative would be to > brush up on the 2007 AES paper "Audibility of a CD-Standard A/DA/A Loop > Inserted into High-Resolution Audio Playback". It never gets old.
