Actually you have to listen to the speaker in a real room at the listening chair. I am constantly amazed that most every speaker that advertises and markets the hell out of using blind tests and measured at the NRC are always the speakers that in every demo room I listen to them in end up sounding the worst. Even the dealers selling them like the speakers from brands that don't do those things better.

Audioholics also noted that those "we do DBT's in our designs - none of them open themselves up to INDEPENDENT tests - It's marketing BS.
