I don't want to turn this into an argument because I just don't know
enough about it.  My point is that if the brain knows that A and B are
different file types then it is going to be working pretty hard to
detect audible differences.  If it finds such differences then it is
easier to discern them in X because the brain now knows where to listen
for them (different phrases, difference notes, different instruments
etc).  If on the other hand the first two plays in triangle testing are
from the same file, then the brain has not prelearnt the cues to pick up
the differences on the third play.  It would not be surprising if the
sensitivity and specificity of ABX and triangle testing are different
because of this prelearning.
