I did 10/10, but that's because I knew exactly what to look for, and how to listen to it. I didn't use my expensive open headphones, but some cheaper closed headphones that passively block external noise, and I used a far louder volume than usual.
Of course the source is specially selected to make the test hard. With music with real dynamics, that hasn't been compressed to death, the test becomes trivial. 8 bit gives you 48dB of SNR, that is lower than vinyl and tape.
