For precise spatial localisation, individual ear spacing is crucial, as it significantly influences the perceived timing differences between the left and right ear. Because this spacing varies from person to person, the same loudspeaker set-up can be perceived differently.
In HEADPHONE LAB, you can manually enter your ear spacing and head circumference. Based on this, the interaural time differences (ITD) of the speaker emulation are adjusted individually.
Your benefits:
- a more realistic and stable phantom centre
- more precise localisation of sound sources
- improved depth perception and panning accuracy
The result is an even more authentic perception of a loudspeaker set-up over headphones—adapted to your personal anatomy.
