Hey DF,

I just got back from vacation and have been catching up on the ungodly number of posts that occured in the past week. This thread seems to have fallen by the wayside, so I thought I'd lift it up again.

It sounds like you really took the time to try to do the comparative listening thoroughly and carefully. Although I can't say I find your results surprising, I thank you for sharing the results of your "ears-on" test.
