    Not to be rude, but why don't they seek out visually impaired people for auditory challenges? (very PC)

    Reading the article goes a long way!

    There, the researchers suggested preventing sight for as little as a week may be enough to help the brain process sound more effectively.

    This was in the article.

    They didn't mention the blind because they already did a study on that as well.

    Short stays in darkness can boost hearing, study shows - Medical News Today


    Reading the entire article helps.......

    This article presents a solid reason why I think blind listening tests are more accurate than sited listening tests with respect to electronics.

    Just not the overwhelmingly common bogus type which use switchboxes that combine signal grounds, use extra cabling and other uncontrolled devices and assumptions that are not normally present.
