[QUOTE="Immacomputer, post: 4911719, member: 570419"] Have you ever heard of a "sneaky path" when referred to electronics? It's basically radiated noise that is picked up by a receptor and the processor will process that noise and the true signal that is received. This sneaky path can cause all sorts of issues in data communication. Sneaky paths usually will cause problems only in very low SNR situations. The sneaky path signal can become very high amplitude and might be used in the processor. The same thing can happen in our brain. A sneaky path can be implemented to supplement the low SNRs that the ears are receiving. If the sneaky path is similar to the applied signal, those signals can be joined and thus your brain tells you that you're hearing this frequency because the signal is still present at the ears. Think about this too: Saying humans can't hear anything below 20hz is like saying your sub's low pass crossover filter does not allow ANY frequencies above the cut off point. That is just not true at all and it can never be true based on the laws of physics as we know them. [/QUOTE]
