Hmmm... It is what it is.Don't forget you were one of the folks who got me to start that blind test last year, Carcass...😆
And you should also know that I would not agree with what Tom's Hardware concluded with based on the objective results from computer motherboards and laptops tested.
The fascinating thing is, these guys are using empirical "testing" but who really knows the conditions of their ears or their gear! Listener "B" supposedly can hear to 20kHz yet is older than "A". I find this suspicious if we're talking an adult male. I won't be surprised if the guy's hearing distortion down at the audio band rather than true 20kHz but doesn't know the difference.
