Abstract

We investigate whether the brain discriminates between clean and mildly degraded audio even when listeners report no noticeable difference. EEG evidence reveals pre-attentive and decision-related ERP modulations for noisy signals, suggesting subconscious processing of subtle quality impairments and implications for objective audio quality assessment.
