As you know Wombat, measurements mean little to nothing to the religious audiophiles. Point taken however, I really hope the test conditions are reasonable controlled with a decent room, good equipment including decent grounding, quiet ambient noise, and hopefully also able to select some "trained" listeners and folks "recognized" as having excellent hearing ability to participate. Otherwise, the criticisms will come hard and fast as already witnessed with the 'Lavorgna post on this today' (http://www.audiostream.com/content/smackdown-amazing-randi-ars-technica-take-ethernet-cables#comments-link#VAbf4C4xdv3rg81K.97) and his non-banned cadre of commenters like CG who dares to suggest objective testers being the religious ones: "But, I guess every form of religion has its own core immutable tenets." How bizarre and perverse.
