RE: I have faith in Brad's personal integrity

The real flaw is that there was no calibration of the source material, equipment, room, etc. as to resolution and suitability to detect the effects being evaluated, nor was there qualification or training of the listeners. For these reasons the failure of the tests to produce results has little predictive value as there is no reason to extrapolate the results to other conditions and subjects. Worse is the interpretation that others have placed on the null results. (Meyers and Moran are somewhat circumspect in this respect.) The failure to disprove the null hypothesis is just a failure to detect. One can not conclude anything from this statistical evidence.

You've got the burden all mixed up. The authors showed nothing, so there is nothing to rebut. What is curious is that the JAES even bothered to publish this non work.
