The main thing is that it's NOT subjective. There were only three converters used, and the Apogee was a go-between to ensure that using different converters in our A/B tests wouldn't cloud measuring the DAWS themselves for freq response.

Also the RME uses the same AKAI chip as a pro tools HD converter...so...they are similar in some respects. Which is why it was the last converter selected for the tests. (Bear in mind that I was working on a company dime, and had to justify expenditures with documentation, I wasn't just doing a shootout to satiate my own curiosity)
Oh I wasn't questioning your tests at all. PT just sounds different to me than Cubase and DP (the only other DAWs I have experience with), and it's definitely not psychological. I don't know Logic.
