Obviously, I did (eventually) as I posted a URL and quoted it at length.

On the subject of redbook fidelity, I'll take the two journalists' study over Kurchner's work . . . any day.

Such is, of course, your right but my scientific training convinced me many moons ago that an experiment with faulty kit, bad sampling technique, shoddy procedures and the like is inherently flawed. It is no more a partial truth than a near miss with a rifle is a partial hit.

. . . and the huge leap of faith and logic required to relate it to digital audio . . .

Maybe it is difficult for some though it seems fairly straightforward to me. Perhaps that's because it's my field. Whatever, Kurchner's experimental work is unarguably very fine and in a different league from Meyer & Moran's "study". We shall just have to disagree on how we interpret his results.

Meanwhile, to tidy up loose ends, if you explain to the Hi-Res aficionados on this list why they're deluding themselves, I'll drop a line to Sony's SACD people making it clear how they've been wasting their time. They'll appreciate it.
