I am aware of that statement. I still stand by my statement, but let my clarify a bit, I meant that its not just percieved increase - it is really there. Looking at a sine wave through a frequency analyzer, without dithering, it's hard to tell what the dynamic range is. You can turn down the amplitude until you can no longer see it on the analyzer. Apply dithering at that level and you can clearly see the signal again. You do not need to use your ears.
