"Humans are less sensitive to changes in the azimuth, φ"

We are MORE sensitive to changes in azimuth than changes in elevation, aren't we ? --Adoudoux (talk) 13:11, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

This entry, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_localization, suggests so, "... Our eardrums are only sensitive to the sound pressure level differences.

Note that these cues will only aid in localizing the sound source's azimuth (the angle between the source and the sagittal plane), not its elevation (the angle between the source and the horizontal plane through both ears)..." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.137.158.52 (talk) 00:17, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
