Throughout this discussion, there seems to be an expectation that DBT can determine "better". It cannot. DBT can only determine "different". Take the example of level setting: If two pieces of equipment are set to the same level with a 1 kHz sine wave and then the test signal causes one to compress and the other not, then a difference will be heard. That the "louder" piece of equipment may be perceived as "better" is irrelevant. The test is a success if a difference is heard.
