Participants never proved they could hear a difference.They merely voted on which version of the Bali "music" they preferred.
That proves absolutely nothing.
Random guessing could easily lead to people preferring either A or B
BUT THAT IS NOT PROOF THEY CAN HEAR ANY DIFFERENCE AT ALL.
People will choose A or B because they are trying to please the experiment leader -- rather than saying "I don't know", or "I can't hear a difference". True of high end audio too!
