(that might not be the best example of the rec.audio-high-end "cable sound challenge", but it was the first reference to it I could find. A Google search will come up with dozens more.)
The listening challenges are interesting, although I highly doubt that anyone would ever be able to collect.

In my personal experience our ears acclimate much to quickly to the room and surroundings hence any minute differences simply are not heard after a very short period. I know I've experienced this myself when participating in any listening test that went beyond a very brief period.

Regards,

Chris
