AB testing is the only way and as @Blumlein88 said, the shorter, the better.
That's why comparators were used in HiFi stores. Instant comparisons between any combination of speakers, amplifiers and sources. No amount of bullsh#tting can escape the comparator. Level matched and instant.
A HiFi store or HiFi retailer without a comparator is either:
a) A crook
b) Deluded
or
c) Both
(not mine- internet pic. But this is the unit I was tasked with wiring up back in the day. Took a whole day. Gotta love the Nixie display huh?)
