Pinna cues can be transposed one octave down for hearing-impaired listeners

Evidence

The monaural spatial information is provided by different sets of pinna cues, either simulated normally-sized pinna cues or enhanced pinna cues either transposed one octave down or cues similar to what Naylor and Weinrich ( 2011 ) suggested. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 3052
