So tell me Luddite, where are the serious audio researchers not using
ABX
or
some other blind listening protocol?
You're a bore aren't you? I don't care what the researchers do unless
they are researching my interest in audio like sean Olive does WITHOUT
ABX. I don't know how many use or don't use Abx, prefer ABChr or do
something else.
Have you contacted Mr. Olive for his views on ABX? I assume they still
use
it at Harman, so obviously they have more confidence in it than you do.
The point is still that when you search for ABX, you find that it's
discussed in the sense that it is one of only a couple ways of doing
relaible comparisons, you certainly won't find any research people relying
on sighted tests.
Those who do do it for their purpose: studying codecs, phase reversals
, thresholds whatever.
This is an audio forum and the question is: "Is ABX a useful tool to
differentiate AUDIO COMPONENTS?"
The answer is still yes, even though this is not the original question you
began with.
Any idiot can dial "AbX" into Google and get a thousand links. Why do
you restrict yourself to just five irrelevant ones?

In this list, Mikey includes citations such as:
"In the first study, we compared adult speakers of English and Hindi on
their ability to discriminate pairings from a synthetic voiced, unaspirated
place-of-articulation continuum."
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!
