Humans can distinguish 10 microseconds OR LESS differential from ear to

Do you have a reference for this?

This was an excellent read! Thanks! I had done some research
into spatial sound perception previously. But, just accepted
the issues -- relative delay and frequency responses -- as
"intuitively obvious". It was interesting to see an explanation
of how this could be implemented "in carbon" (vs. silicon!).

Amazing to consider there are folks who actually think
about these things everyday! A single lifetime is far
too short to learn and appreciate all that you might *want*!
