You see many mistakenly mistook the study as a scientific investigation as hence there was considerable derision when it was revealed by a member (who had read the full report) that there was scant information as to the test methodology and procedures, equipment employed (including little on the "bottleneck”), selection of test subjects, statistical analysis, and on and on.
That was to be expected of course were it the case of research with pretenses of serious scientic. Now however we find that the study was at least in part informed by the results of a listening session at an audiophile's home with his audiophile buddies in attendance as listeners. That and some specialized tests where the playback levels were such that one hopes that participants left without suffering hearing damage; and who knows perhaps even further procedures and tests not described in any great detail?
Much ado about little it now seems, at least for those who were mystified at what appeared to be obvious omissions in the report of a serious research project/investigation.
It seems to me that the confusion could well have been avoided had the report included at least as much detail as you've now provided. Then all would have clearly have seem that it wasn't an attempt at serious science.
We hope our perceptions ain't slippin
But we swear to God we seen Lou Reed
Cow tippin
