The time of arrival will depend on the path length, which includes the distance the sound wave has to travel as it bends around your head (see Figure 9.4). Differences in arrival time between the two ears are called interaural time differences. When low-frequency components are

The sound waves arrive at the right ear before the left ear. This figure is a little misleading, because in the real world the sound would diffract around the head, further delaying the arrival time for the left ear (see Figure 9.4)
