Actually, the only forum that has the no-DBT discussion rule is the Cable Asylum forum.However, I think that you will find that most of the other forums here at AA do not tolerate the insanity of the endlesly circular DBT arguments, and will curtail such threads rather quickly.
There was recently some discusion on the General forum with regards to a 'challenge' by the Amazin Randi, and his having invoked ABX as a pre-requisite for audio related issues. The thread is in the archinves at:
http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/general/messages/341212.htmlPropheads was specifically designed to allow for all forms of technical discussion, includng DBT's if so desired. However, I think that if someone were to just post a "DBT's are wonderful" post even here, very few would participate or reply long term.
If you are interested in DBT's, I have posted several posts here on them specifically, see:

http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/prophead/messages/2580.htmlContrary to popular belief, I am not against DBT's or scientific listening tests, in fact, I wrote an AES paper on the subject some years ago, which is referenced in the last post listed above.
What I am against is the use of flawed amateur ABX/DBT listening tests that only had null results for various audio components being used as if they were some sort of scientific evidence for a negative.
