Blind Testing... down a blind alley?

The subject of Blind Listening Tests came up again recently (it has raised its head regularly since the 1950s at least) so rather than simply reply to the questioner, I will make my view public (again).

In the process I will recommend a magazine you should be reading. Stereophile is brilliantly edited by John Atkinson, onetime Editor of Hi-Fi News. I want you to read a piece by John Iverson in the 'As We See It' column of August 2005. Go to http://Stereophile.com/asweseeit/805awsi/

I fully agree with John's argument.
