That is a great question. It is why Stereophile's reviewers don't see any
measurements until after they have submitted their reviews.
Obviously, the exception is myself, which is why I don't do any measuring
of a product I am reviewing until after I have done the bulk of the
auditioning. In the case of the Wilson-Benesch speaker, I heard the upper-
midrange emphasis with the MLSSA signal as soon as I started measuring it
and once something is heard, it is very difficult to unhear.
