You might find the following paper interesting, although it does not answer your question fully.  It is on the CD  "Study of Speech and Hearing at Bell Telephone Laboratories:  The Fletcher Years" available from the Acoustical Society of America:

Subject: Monaural/Binaural P/I functions

Hello all,

I’m trying to find data showing speech recognition performance as a function of SNR obtained both monaurally and binaurally (preferably in the free field). My assumption is that the Performance Intensity (or performances vs SNR) function will be a bit steeper (as well as offset) for the binaural condition compared to the monaural condition. I’m looking for data to confirm or reject this assumption.

 

Any reference suggestions?

 

Thanks,

 

Ben
