The contention that normally binaural listeners can localize sound under monaural conditions has been challenged by Wightman and Kistler (J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 101:1050-1063, 1997), who found that listeners are almost completely unable to localize virtual sources of sound when sound is presented to only one ear. Wightman and Kistler's results raise the question of whether monaural spectral cues are used by listeners to localize sound under binaural conditions. We have examined the possibility that monaural spectral cues provide useful information regarding sound-source elevation and front-back hemifield when interaural time differences are available to specify sound-source lateral angle. The accuracy with which elevation and front-back hemifield could be determined was compared between a monaural condition and a binaural condition in which a wide-band signal was presented to the near ear and a version of the signal that had been lowpass-filtered at 2.5 kHz was presented to the far ear. It was found that accuracy was substantially greater in the latter condition, suggesting that information regarding sound-source lateral angle is required for monaural spectral cues to elevation and front-back hemifield to be correctly interpreted.

Utility of Monaural Spectral Cues Is Enhanced in the Presence of Cues to Sound-Source Lateral Angle
