audition vs. vision

Dear List,

Can anyone recommend a reference which compares the processing of
temporal information in audition vs. vision from a neural standpoint?

It is known that the the auditory system has neuroanatomical
specializations which help preserve the precise timing of afferent input
(e.g. endbulbs of Held on bushy cells in the cochlear nucleus), but how
does this compare with the visual system?

Thanks,
Ani Patel
