I have been lurking and ocassionaly participating in the debates about the value of DBT testing. I consider it a valuable tool when done under controlled conditions such as the Harman facility run by Dr.Toole. After reading the AES paper about the room I felt it was beyond what we could do in our living rooms. My question is do you agree or have you partcipated in a DBT testing you felt came close to meeting the requirements Harmon uses in there facility? The following link is a presentation on how they conduct testing.
I would like to stick to if testing is possible and not get into issues on the audibility of diferences between components. Thanks

I thought DBTing is only to determine if two components sound different? |
That's what training is for, to learn how to use the equipment., posted on November 13, 2002 at 18:02:47 | |

Sorry, that's wrong. That's PART of what training is for., posted on November 13, 2002 at 18:03:59 | |

"Great. What then are you trying to prove?" What are YOU trying to prove? All you seem to want to do is make useless arguments. |

Yeah, but if you actually look at the data set provided, it doesn't really bear this out. |
