Hm, did I claim this was an experiment? If I did I understand your
point. But I think this is reverse engineering. To your point, the
"control" is yet to arrive - I have on order the V2 of the sampler
disk. This disk has the same track done twice, once with and once
without the HDCD encoding. I will run them through the 24b capture
process and examine the waveforms. The expected results will be to see
the waveform difference. That will be 100% conclusive. 

In the meantime I think Olav has nailed it...
