Abstract

A new signal pathway from the auricle, tympanic membrane and middle ear ossicles directly to the receptor has been described. Attention was drawn to the problems of information transmission to the cochlear fluid, caused by swaying movements of the stirrup. The resonance of the longitudinal wave in the cochlear fluid with the transverse waves of the basilemma has been subject to critique. Critical considerations in relation to the encoding of auditory information by the cochlear fluid and the tip-links mechanism have been also presented. Both the middle ear amplification and the amplification by OHC contractions are issues of the analysis. A new formula for the amplification of the auditory signal, received, but too small to reach the center, is set forth. This is an amplification at the molecular level in the auditory cell.
