This paper used a novel online experimental paradigm and got 162 
subjects for their first experiment.  (Their second experiment 
recruited 43 subjects from this very AUDITORY list!):

Honing, H. (2006). Evidence for tempo-specific timing in music using 
a web-based experimental setup. Journal of Experimental Psychology: 
Human Perception and Performance, 32 (3), 780-786.

I'm using a similar paradigm for an experiment on Perceptual Attack 
Time that I'm currently running:

At the moment I'm only up to N=17, but I'll be sending out a formal 
invitation (aka "volunteer subject recruitment email") to this list 
in the next few days, so maybe I'll make it into the realm of large N 
in the coming weeks!
