Tim,
Your 'report' straddles the line to advertisement, and uses third-party testimonials. Both are unappreciated in this forum.
But your post bugs me for another reason: I find these "trade show tests" notoriously unreliable because of the completely unsuitable environment for critical listening: unknown equipment, too much reverberant content, half the time the headphones are polarity-reversed...
I think your original idea of sending your test capsules to individual users of whom you ask for critical feedback after critical listening in their own, familiar and optimized listening environments makes a lot more sense towards perfecting a product. (I will do my part in that regard here shortly.)
At least at HiFi shows exhibitors, who can afford it, go through the effort of installing isolated and acoustically treated listening rooms, and let listeners bring source material they are familiar with.
I am amazed but not surprised that microphone exhibitors at trade shows keep doing this. Many of them go along with the protocol because show attendees keep coming and keep making serious, knowing facial expressions after such comparisons. Yet, many exhibitors shrug their shoulders and keep obliging. Who wants to argue with congratulatory affirmations to the exhibitor when he wins the test?
