From something I was doing a while ago, I collected some references on audible delays. It seems to vary by discipline, and it’s not very recent either. But if it helps, here you go:
Agnew, J., & Thornton, J. M. (2000). Just noticeable and objectionable group delays in digital hearing aids. Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 11(6), 330–336. Retrieved from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10858005 Cox, J. (1984). The minimum detectable delay of speech and music. In ICASSP ’84. IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing (Vol. 9, pp. 136–139).

Estimation of limits imposed by the auditory path alone using simulated hearing losses. Ear and Hearing, 20(3), 182–192. Retrieved from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10386846 Rasch, R. A. R.

Retrieved from http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/dav/aaua/1979/00000043/00000002/art00005 (I think that Stone & Moore have more recent work as well)
