That indefatiguable lost babe in the woods NYOB fished out another
pearl to share with the world of audio and told RAHE about it.
I felt it should have a wider audience

It is an ABX comparison of SACD vs. DVD-A originally presented as a
Master's thesis at a German University.
You guessed it: they found no difference.
Next question: who are "some" who "will not be happy about"
this.

The people who swear there are auidble differences because of the different
formats and higher bit rates.

Would it be their examiners objecting to the use of the never validated
by basic research, never positive, ABX protocol as a proven.

No, since that is a fantasy of yours.

decisive
litmus paper test ? Could "some" of them say that acceptance of an
unvalidated protocol as a given without discussion puts their results
in question.

See above comments regarding your rich fantasy life.

Or would it be Prof, S.P. Lip****z of Waterloo Univ., the heavy
authority of audio research, who stood up for DVD-A (LPCM) and
declared once that acceptance of SACD (!-bit sigma delta) would be
"a tragedy".? *

This raises a fascinating problem: Prof. Lip****z *and* his coauthor
Vanderkooy *and* R. Stuart of Meridian hear the difference between SACD
and DVD-A but NYOB's sources do not.

They are not my sources, you stupid git, they are the people ivolved in this
fairly sizeable group of listgeners.

Are Lip****z, Vanderkooy and
Stuart misguided, closet subjectivists or ignoramuses who await RAO
scientists to tell them all about ABX?

What protocl do they use Ludo? I guarantee it's not sighted comparisons.

Or were the two Master degree
candidates led astray by the ABX protocol they used that makes it all
sound the same?

There is no such protocol.
