RE: The subject of A/B testing...

A/B testing is an altogether different matter than double blind testing. Swapping-out one device vs. another to hear if something may sound different is the foundation of the audiophile experience, and must be done by audio designers/manufacturers when developing a product. For example, evaluating one cap or resistor to hear if it performs better, or simply more to one's liking is often directly compared with another, rather than only relying on audio memory. Double blind testing is often considered definitive by objectivists who may not hear any difference, while a subjectivist often hears a difference right off the bat, since they tend to have better trained ears.
