It is true that this was a flaw in the experiment. They should have
played the SACDs and DVD-A to ensure that they actually had  hi rez
content . Reporting this flaw would have enhanced the results and
conclusions part of their article.  Interestingly enough I know of no
reports from high end reviewers of this effect.

The problem of the absence of appreciable ultrasonic content in
so-called ho rez recordings was AFAIK first reported in this article:

This paper was first given at the AES 24th AES International Conference
on Multichannel Audio: June 26-28, 2003  Banff, Canada. It seems to
predate the well known Meyer and Moran study by about 4 years.
