Hi Paul J--
Thanks for conducting the comparison and putting it together for us
on line. I find it very informative.

I wanted to be able to listen to the samples closely juxtaposed and
blind. In case others want to try this:

(1) QuickTime Movie comparing clips from the two rigs for viewing
with a web browser:
http://snipurl.com/utdv0  (8mb) Requires QuickTime

(2) QuickTime Movie comparing clips from the two rigs for downloading
and viewing with QuickTime. MPPEG Streamclip or most other Media
players. http://tinyurl.com/ygm8otf (8mb .zip)

I posted the ID for the clips in the comment area here:
