FIG. 2.

Spatial trajectories of patient P5, listening with his intact left ear only (A) or with the BCD on (B), and of control listener C5, listening with the right ear plugged (C) or with both ears (D). Note that for both listeners monaural listening (A and C) shifts responses towards the hearing side, while BCD and binaural listening yields more symmetric response distributions in the horizontal plane (B and D). Stimuli (1,000 ms, four per location) were presented at seven different azimuth positions ranging from −90° (far left) to +90° (far right) at 30° intervals. X indicates the hearing-impaired (A) and plugged (C) sides.
