Abstract

In a listening test participants were asked to rate their impression of product sound quality of truck sounds combined with steering wheel vibrations. The set-up also contained stimuli where one of two harmonics in the sound was suppressed, corresponding to the most salient peaks in the vibration spectrum. Sound and vibrations were rated as more annoying, tiring, rumbling and of lesser quality than the sound alone. Sound and vibrations were however also rated as more powerful, suggesting a positive contribution to the product sound quality. Only tendencies towards the expected mismatch effects for vibrations lacking their auditory counterpart were found.
