What's a "Bottleneck" and where can we buy them?
Unless an audiophile used a similar "Bottleneck" in his audio system, which seems very unlikely, test results based on the use of a "Bottleneck" would not apply to him.
We already have 30 years of blind testing that consistently shows audiophiles can't even come close to proving their claims that "everything sounds different", except with speakers and two components playing at different SPL's, so why would an audio club waste time testing some theoretical "Bottleneck"?
I suppose their next test will be metal coat hangers versus speaker wire?
High resolution digital recordings/discs are much more likely to be sold on the basis of better sound quality so the engineers involved are much less likely to provide the usual LOUD compressed overprocessed pop recordings that seem so common on Redbook CDs.

Follow Ups:
Richard BassNut Greene, notorious throne in the side of the faithful at the Audio Asylum and well known staunch DBT advocate, little impressed by announcement of the Boston Audio Society's latest victory in debunking yet another Audiophile Community myth. Ridiculing the BAS effort that utilized scientifically valid DBT methodology Greene was reported to have said, "I suppose their next test will be metal coat hangers versus speaker wire?"
While this reporter could not obtain an official statement from any of Green's fellow Ultra Objectivists one did offer the following off the record comment, "We fear that Richard has gone off his rocker, I really don't know what to think, it's just surreal like, like... I dunno, Rush Limbaugh going on the campaign trail for Hillary Clinton? It's a sad day."
I feel a dirty wind blowing
Devils and dust
Does that mean I used to be "on my rocker"
I'll add that to my resume.

be sure to add "notorious throne". One seldom ever sees that on a resume.
That must be the infamous Senator Craig "wide stance" toilet from the airport bathroom where he was arrested.I heard it's being auctioned on ebay.

we must avoid using it. It can lead to a life long addiction to thinking for one's self. ::GASP::

Does that mean we'd have to listen for ourselves? How horrible! We need to remember that this is audio, and nothing in the word "audio" denotes listening. Measurements tell us all we need to know about audio gear. If we feel we *have* to listen, we should only do so under 100 DBT trial conditions. Learning *what* to think is much more important that learning *how* to think.
I would never make it as an objectivist. LOL

Check out my post in Vinyl. I'd bet you've heard of the Victrola Magic Brain.
adjust your perceptions. Measurments are objective. Perceptions are unreliable.
How was that impression of an objectivist?

Spot on! Measurements don't lie! :)
