you can locate lots of in depth discussion of the methodology outside of this AA thread.Fundamentally, the study lacked any notion of controls. SACD content was chosen without any consideration as to whether or not it actually contained high resolution material. There were many systems used, much of it substandard including a $250 Pioneer universal player that JA found to have poor performance. They merely assumed that the ABX box was not blending the signals since most use common grounds. Why not just compare a live recording using two different resolutions as others have done?
There's a frequent poster here named Tony Lauck who makes high resolution recordings and happens to have been a college roommate with Meyer. He says while Meyer was a wealthy kid, he had crappy audio gear. :)
