I'm probably not the only one who missed this thread when it was first posted... Not that I expect to hear a difference
Thanks again to SparkE for the putting this together.. It is the middle of summer so I don't expect everyone to immediately find time to squirrel themselves away for the intensive and repetitive listening that this entails. The great thing about a comp like this is that it is timeless. Someone can listen in 3 years without a lot of fuss and gear the next time this subject comes up.. and it will.
I suggest everyone burn a copy and go to your local hifi emporium and ask about burn in. Find someone who works there who is very emphatic about it. Don't tell them about the disc until they're firmly in the 'I can tell!' camp and then give them a copy... A lot of those guys do get bored during the day and they'd probably be pretty into this.
Next up, and no doubt more popular, would be a cable comp. I still don't have a good 24/96 DAC that works with balanced cables and would have to go squeezebox3 or UA5 > v3 > test cable > 722. I don't think that source combo is worth the effort.. Must get Mytek..
