The pitch-matched electrode pair is not necessarily the best for time sensitivity

Evidence

The matched electrodes are R4.4 (pitch comparison), R6-R8 (best IPTD performance), and R6 (largest BIC amplitude). In contrast to the common assumption that pitch-matched pairs maximize sensitivity to binaural cues, for this subject the pairs with best IPTD sensitivity are 1.6–3.6 electrodes away from (interpolated) electrode identical pitch perception. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 1469 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
