Hi Adam. As others have indicated, it's supposed to be a listening test and I wonder if these members did the null subtraction analysis before or after filling out the survey response? There could be reasons why they're not seeing what they expect but I'm not sure we should be talking about this at this time... I'll certainly reveal all the technical details once the test is done including settings and program used for conversion and dithering. If this is the kind of discussion going on for a simple 24-bit vs. 16-bit test; could you imagine how impossible it would be to do a 44kHz vs. 96kHz test! :mad: Anecdotally, the other day I was reading the recent Stereophile magazine and I came across the HDTracks ad that said "You will hear the difference" (page 100). Firm message - as if it's that simple! Although they refer to "up to 24/192" (arguable need for 192kHz of course), it's the kind of thing I hope this test will allow people to experience and (as appropriate), question. Good gradual accumulation of data I'm seeing. Hopefully people will stay honest and "use their ears".
