The temporal-to-place mechanism transition occurs near 8 kHz, not 4-5 kHz

Evidence

Moore and Ernst ( 2012 ) reported DLFs for center frequencies from 2 to 14 kHz that were consistent with the idea that there is a transition from a temporal to a place mechanism at about 8 kHz, rather than at 4–5 kHz, as commonly assumed. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 5398
