Apparently. (sigh) I guess I shouldn't have taken the Audio Asylum mission statement to actually mean what it said, since the recent actions of AA staff have contradicted those words.

Sweet. I couldn't have said it better myself...

The freezer test is something that most can usually discern. But its very possible to do a "bad test" somehow, and miss it entirely. For example, I don't know what process you used. A proper freeze test takes about 2 days (because it is repeated twice), and involves a very slow thawing process each time (where the item would be wrapped in thick blanket, for example, to slow warm-up). And in this case, an unfrozen control CD copy would be necessary to compare to the frozen. I am sure you can hear differences in alternative audio, if the right tests were done.
