Knowing what A and B are does not in any way make an ABX test invalid
Knowing what to listen for gave you an advantage that you wouldn't have had, if you hadn't analyzed the files first. And for the same reason, you didn't choose which files to ABX by accident. Not exactly 100% blind, is it.
TBH I don't think you're a very good sport. Every time there's a blind test on Head-Fi, you go straight to analyzing the files, going so far as to reveal some clues to others (spoiling the fun for everyone else), that you didn't even gather by just listening to the files. I wish you would keep your findings to yourself.
I'm much more impressed by miceblue's result, assuming he didn't do anything special prior to ABXing.
