1. Yes, I think you are correct about your statement. A DBT will not reveal the cause of differences nor is the purpose to determine perferences. All that is required is to determine a sonic difference and this would lead to an investigation into the physical properties of the cable which are responsible for the differences. The preference of one cable sound over another is not relevent to any of this scientific procedure.2. Again, I do believe that a DBT is the only satisfactory method for determining that two similar cables do sound different. However, the procedure may not necessarily be an ABX type of test but it would have to be a test where only a persons hearing is doing the subjective evaluation. Maybe models from the medical community using placebos and control groups, etc. would be helpful.
3. Yes.
4. No.
