Effect of contralateral medial olivocochlear feedback on perceptual estimates of cochlear gain and compression

The active cochlear mechanism amplifies responses to low-intensity sounds, compresses the range of input sound intensities to a smaller output range, and increases cochlear frequency selectivity. The gain of the active mechanism can be modulated by the medial olivocochlear (MOC) efferent system, cre...
