Actually, I’m looking forward to hearing Craig’s review of these and if he thinks the difference is noticable.
There are two kinds of noticable ... 1 - a/b side by side (blind or otherwise) and 2 - a/b hours or days apart ... which I think is rather hard if the speakers are close
Now, I’ll ask you if you can’t tell them apart in test 2 ... does test 1 really matter for what you put in your home. I know ... just causing trouble me is ....
In theory, we could to an instant blind A/B test using the passive preamp box Debbie built for me 4 years ago. Yes, Debbie is that talented. The staff in Dwight is remarkable.
It would take a lot of setup, and interconnects, but it could be done.
