So now I am left wondering:  If a showgoer heard the ML3 demonstration and found the ML3 undistinguished, what would it have taken to distinguish it?

Paul, the “showgoer” it seems that was juts clueless what he is doing there. Even disregarding the personal comments of the “showgoer” who apparently does not know how to perform the “target listening” there are general rule: do not comment on negative results at the shows but comment only on positive results. There is zillions reasons why Sound could be very bad at the trade shows. At any single show that I have attended the Lamm’s rooms always had very poor sound (with 1.5 exception but it was not public demonstration). However, trust me: a constant poor result at the trade shows is absolutely normal and absolutely not indicative. So, the rule are that if the room turns out to sound good (mostly accidentally) then it worth judgment. Otherwise, if the room turns out to sound poor, then it is absolutely irrelevant how the room performed. Sure for an evolved listener who is well familiar with the subject even a bad sounding room might give a lot of information. However an “intelligent showgoer” is a very rare commodity in Vegas….
