Here's the test I would say is significant:
Bunch of people listening to music. At a party, maybe. Having a drink, telling jokes, whatever. They're listening to 16/44.
Someone switches the music to 24/96. People stop and say, 'wow, what happened to the stereo, it's sounding much better'.
That would be a meaningful difference. Not a series of tests with people listening intently to sample a and sample b and saying if they think they can hear a difference.
