There is a simpler way. Using AudioDiffMaker often gives the answer almost instantaneous. Sometimes one has to ponder a bit on the masking effect, but that's often not necessary, the difference is just way too small. http://www.libinst.com/Audio%20DiffMaker.htm Other than that, I agree that double-blind is the way to go.
