Would you suddenly fail to be able to hear the train because your eyes were closed?
Are you only able to identify the fact that the train is coming because you see it and know in advance that it is there, or could you hear the same train in a DBT?
If you say that you'd be able gather the same information about the train's sound whether you knew it was there or not, then they would ask you why you can't do that with your audio gear.
In a DBT, would you fail to identify the difference between a train coming vs. not? Would audiophiles faced with DBT and forced choice be run down by trains or would they be able to overcome the terrible burdens DBT and forced choice create and say, "Hey, there's a train a coming!"
HA could say: If only sighted listening works for identifying sonic virtues, then are you really doing a LISTENING test?
