[Harp-L] Combs ( auditory illusion )

["Daniel Perrone" <dany_perrone@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I do not trust what I hear.

Unless somebody takes up Vernâs challenge and proves him wrong I believe that combs do not affect tone in a human discernible way.

Just play the video below a few times,....... same notes every time.....but my ears tell me it goes up in pitch every time i play it......crazy !!!
