I am not sure I understand what you mean by "non-instrusive".
Here are a few recent references on perceptual evaluation of sound  
quality for non-speech sounds.

(2005). Ecological validity of soundscape reproduction. Acustica  
united with Acta Acustica, 91(2), 333-341.

evaluation of vibrato models. Proceedings of the 2d CIM (Conference  
on Interdisciplinary Musicology), March 2005. Montreal: Canada.

dimensional spatial audio reproduction. Journal of the Acoustical  
Society of America, 116(2), 1105-1115.

Reconsidered in the Context of Product-Sound Quality." Acustica  
united with acta acustica, 90(6), 999-1006.

Evaluation, Acustica united with acta acustica, 90(6), 10297-1037.

I hope this helps,
