Right, chess; I've linked the Stereo Review test results several times in the past and could have done it again here, but didn't think that much discussion on the point would come up yet again. The article is a classic that remains unchallenged, i.e. unchallenged by solid evidence, not simply by those who stubbornly refuse to face the facts.
There aren't any miracles in audio, and keeping one's mind open to objective evidence, but closed to BS sure does help a lot in grasping this.
