Abstract

Two measures of auditory spatial resolution, the minimum audible angle and the minimum audible movement angle, have been obtained in a simulated acoustic environment using Ambisonics sound field reproduction. Trajectories were designed to provide no reliable cues for the spatial discrimination task. Larger threshold angles were found in reverberant compared to anechoic conditions, for stimuli on the side compared to the front, and for moving compared to static stimuli. The effect of reverberation appeared to be independent of the position of the sound source (same relative threshold increase) and was independently present for static and moving sound sources.
