Thanks for letting me know you use it too.I've heard it called the L.I.A.R. test - stands for "listening in another room".
When giving a demo to a customer, I usually ask them to step into an adjacent room specifically so I can let them hear the reverberant sound thusly isolated. I explain why this test is a good predictor of long-term listening enjoyment, as outlined in my "not a good analogy" reply to Richard. No it's not the only thing that matters, but in my experience it's rare to find a speaker that sounds wrong from the next room but is still highly enjoyable long-term. I can only think of one offhand.
