... Have you tried the stereo experiment described in my posting:
        - UNmixing Sources, i.e., The Cocktail Party Effect.

... This is a easily repeated experiment that "unambiguously demonstrate[s]
temporal processing in humans in the 3 to 5 kHz range".  Actually, in an
arbitrary (wideband) range since *you* select the two (2) sources.

... Basically, this experiment demonstrates that the Precedence Effect acts
as a temporal "filter".
