Critical bandwidth at 2 kHz center frequency is 300 hertz

Evidence

The change in critical bandwidth with frequency can be demonstrated if the fixed frequency F1 in Figure 2.7 is altered to a new value and the new position of CB is found. In practice, critical bandwidth is usually measured by an effect known as “masking” (see Chapter 5), in which the “rather abrupt change” is more clearly perceived by listeners. — David M.
