Transient Response: When tested with a squarewave, some amplifiers,
and most loudspeakers overshoot and ring to a stop. With amplifiers
and CD players the ringing can be zero. Only a few loudspeaker systems
have near zero ringing. I don't know the threshold of audibility for
ringing.

Since overshoot and ringing can be near zero for amplifiers and CD
players, that should be the required standard.

Really? Square waves have no ringing on CDs? What would Mr.
Gibbs have to say?

I think you seriously have to reconsider this claim in light of
what happens to harmonic seies like square waves that undergo
abrupt truncation.
