title: Just noticeable differences of spatial cues in echoic and anechoic acoustical environments.
abstract: The perceptual limits for detecting changes in binaural cues also define the boundaries for the perception of differences in spatial impression. This study reports just noticeable differences for interaural time delays (ITDs) and interaural level differences (ILDs) of the early part and for the interaural cross-correlation (IACC) of the early and diffuse part of binaural room impulse responses. The results show that ITDs only allow a high accuracy in localization in anechoic environments, whereas ILDs show a higher robustness against reverberation. Subjects are rather insensitive to changes in IACC, only changes that bring the IACC close to one are detectable.
