Abstract

This paper presents new binaural-hearing-threshold data obtained (a) by an earphone method over the frequency range 5–100 Hz and (b) by a whole body chamber method over the range 2–20 Hz. The results obtained are in excellent agreement with recent reported data. The binaural to monaural listening advantage appears to remain at 3 dB throughout the frequency range. A good approximation to the binaural threshold of hearing may be formed by lines from the point 92.0 dB SPL at 15.5 Hz with slopes of 12.3 dB/octave for frequencies below 15.5 Hz and 22.2 dB/octave above.
