Abstract: When you listen to music through headphones, the sound seems to come from inside your head. But there is an illusion known as ‘virtual auditory space’ which makes such sounds seem to originate outside the head. This virtual sound is now closer to reality thanks to a study showing that the parameters that need to be measured to create this effect are not as complicated as first thought.
