funny, but in AB tests most audiophiles aren't able to pick the better product in a statistically significant manner, but Mikey Fremer & JAtkinson could.

Gee, I wasn't the least bit offended. The results were about what I would expect, if not even a bit better. Considering, as has already been commented on, the brevity, and unfamiliarity with room (which as we all know is extremely important), all in all, I think the writter was fair and did a good job.
Nowhere was it mentioned if the gear used was broken in. How long were the pieces used? Was anything actually run-in enough to the point where it was working to it's fullest capacity? Most take quite a bit of time to fully break in. Not very scientific, to say the least.
