They calibrated them to remove as much of the non-resolution differences between them as possible (though they admit very minor differences in black levels and gamma response remained), built identical cabinets to house them in, and roped off an area 9 feet away for people to view them from. In the end, 97% of viewers were able to correctly identify the 4K screen. Though the testers readily admitted that the differences were pretty slight.
Do you happen to have a link to this? Because if someone wanted to convince me that I'm totally wrong this is exactly the sort of experiment they'd do.
