Advanced technologies used in HD 1500

The HD1500 makes use of several advanced technologies.
Principle of determining the direction of sound
People can determine the localization of sounds through the perception of
differences in intensity – so called Interaural Intensity Difference (IID) – and
through time differences – so called Interaural Time Difference (ITD).
IID is about the fact of sounds being louder as they are closer to the ear
and being louder in case they have a non-obstructed path to the ear.
ITD is about the fact that in most cases sounds will arrive earlier in time at
one ear than at the other.
In fact it is the environment itself that greatly impacts the sound before it
reaches our ears. Reflections and absorption all will influence the sense of
distance and direction we associate with a sound.
Combining IID and ITD will allow the brain to determine the direction of
sounds only in a rough way. It is in through the combination of IID and ITD
and the way sounds are filtered because of the structure of the pinna - the
outer ear – that allows to brain to accurately localise sounds.

frequencies.That's why our brain can easily locate higher frequencies,
rather than lower frequencies.
