Thompson concluded that under the conditions of = binaural hearing above described, the tone-stimulus is transmitted along = each auditory nerve to some common cerebral centre and that at this = centre the beats arise. But this and the following interesting fact, = also observed by Thompson, can be explained without recourse to such an = unwelcome hypothesis, if we suppose that each tone is transmitted by = bone conduction to the opposite ear and that the beats heard are due to = the play of the two series of vibrations of different frequency on one = and the same sense organ"<br class=3D""><br class=3D""></div>I wondered = if Thompson really proposed such an "unwelcome hypothesis", a central = comparison of waveforms from the two sides.&nbsp; What I find it that he = rather carefully danced around the idea, suggesting it but not saying = it, and trying to rule out bone conduction, in 1877:<br class=3D""><br = class=3D"">&nbsp; "5.&nbsp; It is not easy to explain why = interference-beats should thus occur in the simultaneous individual = action of the two ears, while combinational tones (difference-tones) are = inaudible.

Moreover the bone of the skull itself is = capable of conveying sonorous tremors, which might account for both ears = hearing a sound entering by one only. In either of these latter cases, = however, there would be no reason why combinational tones should not be = equally audible in binaural as in monaural audition; so that we are = driven to the hypothesis that any means of comparison which may exist in = the nerve systems of the ears exists deep-seated in the actual structure = of the brain. This may be the reason why dissonances are in binaural = audition so excessively dis agreeable, and why even ordinary consonant = intervals become harsh. They evoke a discontinuous sensation when there = is no opportunity of their blending previously to acting upon the = sensitive mechanism of the nerve-structures.
