RE: to wit, ear training of some sort is vital

The scientific research that has gone into testing digital codecs from hi res to MP3 as well as redbook has all been done with trained listeners. And the amount of data accumulated in those controlled tests was massive.

If someone can't hear real differences in a simple ABX DBT because they lack listener training they sure aren't hearing those differences under casual listening conditions. Well designed ABX double blind tests are, contrary to popular audiophile folklore, pretty much the most sensitive protocols for detecting actual audible differences.
