Fredex: There may or may not be 5 of each. Each individual cable is either broken in or not broken in randomly- it's like when you flip a coin 10 times, you may or may not get exactly 5 heads or tails.
He called us brainwashed. Kinda funny he uses a book that references such assorted characters as Occult expert and the inspiration for Scientology Alexander Crowley and a wack nut hippy who's answer to the meaning of life was to stop trying to learn and take a bunch of drugs. Fun reading

I understand where you are coming from. I am using fullrangers myself, now vintage Axiom 300s.
Key has done us a great service. He found the book for free. Just read the first chapter, nothing more is necessary.
Why? And please don't send me to send that book, or anything that's remotely connected to any cult.
Could you please spell out the incorrectness of what you call SY's test?
If I may add, we have an input into how the test is to be run; I invited you personally for input. I see it as our test, not SY's test. SY is not our ruler and I didn't get the impression that he was even trying. There are no conspiracies here.
Eh I can save you the time. It's just more bastardized Zen Buddhism made stupid by white people.
In 1967, Jerry debated Timothy Leary about the merits of LSD. Jerry hurled the timeless epithet "********!" at Leary, who was sitting in the lotus position near a candle. This in response to Leary (a licensed psychologist) characterizing the frank symptoms of temporal lobe epilepsy as a religious experience. (The event was later broadcast uncensored by a public television station, which may be the first time that such a taboo word was ever spoken on broadcast television.)
The Jerry being Jerome Lettvin, quite involved at one time with audio too.
Yes, the first pair that's sent (to see if the differences can be heard) would be marked as to which one was burned in and which one isn't.
edit: Of course, if the objection is, "But the original pair will be older!" then two more reference cables could be included. That certainly doesn't break the blind protocol.
Obviously a well burned in pair so the acclimation trial doesn't cause a change. Might be worth a second (or more) 'cold' pair for a sighted reference. That permits two comparative standards when working with an unlabeled sample.
