The story behind my involvement in that test mirror's Ajani's sig line:
<i>Staying alive in this forum is just like prison, you have to either beat someone up or become someone's b!tch...</i>
I've participated in audio forums as a sharing of ideas and benefited greatly from that exchange. Opinions will vary, but for some sadly it has become a contact sport. I just love posters who begin a post with a personal taunt. Like another one I've mentioned here, that's the way this one started:

Unfortunately for him, it backfired. I've since asked a couple of other ankle biters (two post here as well) to take the test and post their results. Naturally, they have not. I used a Dell laptop using its basic built in sound card and Shure E3c earbuds. You'll note that others have done substantially better than I with this basic test. :)
