Obviously, we are seeing a quote/paraphrase of the press release that the author seems to have written for himself, and most specifically *not* an accurate extract of the content of the peer-reviewed paper. In reality the peer reviewed paper only claims that less than 5% of the listener's experiences involved accurate identification. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arnyk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64365 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105816 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
