Default DBT a flawed method for evaluating Hi-Fi ?

I have been trying to think what the closest sound equivalent to
jangling keys that one might come across in music (leaving out
Stockhausen for the moment:-) Perhaps a "zizzle" (rivet) cymbal or a
shaken tambourine? Triangles and glockenspiels cannot really be counted
when reproducing a single fundamental, although they do tend to distort
easily.


A friend of mine did once have an LP of indian music that included the
sounds of dancers. The dancers had around their ankles lots of bottle-tops
on a string, that made an interesting sound as they moved their feet.
Perhaps that might do. :-)

First, we have to empty some bottles...

Slainte,
