A-B testing?

Has anyone actually tried an A-B test between a record first cleaned by a VPI or similar record cleaner (conventional) and an ultrasonic? Listened closely to a record after cleaning on a "conventional" record cleaning machine then after cleaning with an ultrasonic using the EXACT SAME CLEANING FLUID?

The ideal test would use several cartridges with different stylus profiles after each cleaning.

As a back-up test, it would be interesting to first clean a record with the ultrasonic, listen, then clean with the conventional machine and listen to see if there is any difference

I'm not convinced that there would be much, if any, difference. But that is just the "scientific skepticism" that has bewen ingrained in me for the last 60 years or so.
