the f-m work was flawed because the impedance curves of the attenuators used were either measured incorrectly or marked wrong or something.this having to do with attenuated frequencies caused by the attenuators themselves.
and then another couple of people did the tests all over again with the correct impedance accounted for and came up with the revised measurements.
an acqaintance of mine who is an expert in cochlear studies also recounted a similar story when i asked him about f-m.
one of his papers titled --comparing octaves, frequency ranges, and cochlear-map curvature across species-- is on my desk.
he also sent me another paper by michele biasutti titled --sharp low- and high-frequency limits on musical chord recognition.
both of these were printed in the publication hearing research.
