Except that's not what they said. You are taking once sentence out of context and then snipping it further to support your beliefs.
You aren't supposed to 😉 "A secret aim or reason for doing something:
She felt that some of the group had an agenda.
There's no hidden agenda - I'm just trying to help" AGENDA | meaning in the Cambridge English Dictionary
Mr GUNFU, you didnt mention the source media of the recordings listened to. Was it vinyl? Digital at std CD resolution? Hyper bit and sampling resolution? Just curious what the source signal was, to be as effected and transformed.
Also curious if these transformitive qualities attributed to Mr. van den Hul's cable would also be perceptible in mono; was it a spatial or timbre effect?
What might be fun at your next get-together is to try mono source > switch cables > single amp > single speaker. I wonder what that does?

While it is not exactly what the authors have said, if you take the next sentence into consideration:
"However, it is possible to substitute loudspeakers of progressively lesser quality of reproduction, and to continue to repeat the tests until no difference can be heard between the different DACs."
it is inverted but very close, I'd say.
Of course, there are several ways to enhance the test design, but I thought/hoped that would be obviouse given the numerous post I've written about it.
So, I only tried to describe what he intended to do, what he has done and why the experiment couldn't work that way.
But, two sets of DBT runs were done and based on the results we are able to do our own statistical analysis.
Again, of course, he did some pretests and based on his work (while studying) parttime in audio retail he surely was confident that the tests would corrobate his hypothesises, at least that was my impression from reading the thesis.
Could be, but you're claiming that it is/was a misleading action (by Markw4 and me) and without any explanation why it is a bit weak.
Right now I'm looking at the said chapter/paragraph in the book and fail to see that your claim is correct. 😉

I’m not persuading anyone. This is your stereo. It's easier to take and try different cables yourself. I am not interested in promoting Mr. van den Hul products. Because I never mentioned the exact brand of this cable. Moreover, I myself am experimenting in this area. My friend also has cables from other manufacturers, including home-made ones. They all sound different. As for mono recordings, we, of course, listened very carefully. By the way, those experiments with cables were conducted by Russians in a California studio. One worked for the US Navy, the other now works for JBL PRO and as a result of computer simulation he created a new product for the first time in 70 years. The monophonic recordings of the 50s and 60s also sound amazing like stereo recordings. And there is also spatial information. We even discussed among ourselves why stereo was invented, if mono is not so bad? I would even say the opposite: it is strange that we explain this to you, I think you have much more opportunities for experimentation, both in the USA and in Europe than in Russia. Apparently, we are more obsessed.

Dutch Cables tested by Russians in the USA.
That is a Babylonic confusion waiting to happen.

Funny pattern repeating all the time from certain people.
Everybody with questionmarks to their opinions has a lousy installation, is prejudiged, doesn’t listen and doesn’t read.
Did I forget anything ?

You must be awarded a beer and a bar, cars and cheap girls. Books, electrostatic speakers and other things are definitely not for you. You say the most expensive vinyl system? 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
