Would the accuser or any other golden ear care to conduct a blind listening test and report the results? You can use any two CD players you want, I just want to know if you can reliably identify which one is which. No need to defend the more expensive one as sounding better for whatever reason. Just reliably pick out which one is which. A double blind experiment is preferred. Be sure to match output levels. -- I like vegetables that start with "a". Artichokes, avocadoes, etc. Some of the "b"s are ok, like broccoli, but brussels sprouts are out. As for cabbage, forget it!
