Abstract
The consumer's listening test is the ultimate test of a sound system. During product development, listening tests must be carefully controlled if they are to produce useful data. Prejudiced or biased listeners are the most frequent cause of poor or misleading data from these tests. This paper describes methods of eliminating the effects of listener bias by using double-blind techniques.
