I think these findings by Guillaume and Rufus are quite profound in the Entreq debate.
Introduce an Entreq with a single product, e.g. a Devialet, and say it sounds better and one reaction is "well it would do because you have bought it".
But use it in a test where it alters one component for the better, modestly, but another for the better, significantly, and this could point to design inadequacies in both units, but in one more materially than in the other. If the end point is to get both those components optimally designed (perhaps under licence from Entreq) then that will be a great result.
