The best way to do a test like this is to use the same equipment in every test, and only change the interconnect. You will want to use whatever is the best equipment at that particular store also.

Be sure to try everyting from the very cheap coaxial cable included with most components, very basic optical, and all the way up to the $10,000/3 foot coaxial cable in a blind test.

My own view on this is that is there were such huge differences in the digital signal, the decoder wouldn't be able to tell what was DTS/DD and what was PCM or anything else.
