You are right, I did not do a blind test, but then again, the
difference is
so significant that it would seem foolish to do so...I am not into
this for
the science, but merely because i enjoy listening to good music.

This is the famous argument that "you don't need a blind test because
these differences are so great that you'd have to have 'cloth ears'
not to hear them." Let's just do the tests, if for no other reason
than to establish firmly the truth of this argument.

When I've done the tests I've found that I have cloth ears, and
strangely enough, so have all the other audiophiles taking the test
alongside me.
