But the claims they are reporting go against a large number of studies that have time and again shown no ability to discriminate between redbook and "hi-res" under properly controlled conditions.
Nowhere in QMC's synopsis does it mention whether this meta-analysis was careful to include only those studies which used the same masterings in level matched double blind comparisons. Unless the hi-res master is downsampled to redbook for the purposes of the comparison, all bets are off. Anyone have any more details about this study?
