But this kind of improvement can still be hard to believe.

A lot of the people that I've worked with will say, "Now when I listen to my spouse, it sounds like her voice," which baffles all of us who work in this field because if you look at how the ear's being activated, there's no explanation.

I mean, not to be too on the nose, but it's unexplainable, right? So it's, there's no way that that could possibly be true, and yet a lot of people say it.

Instead, the pulses kinda spread out around the part that codes for that frequency.

Let me make an analogy.

(piano music plays) Suppose you're playing a note on the piano.

You can be really careful and hit the exact key you want, or you can be kind of crude and put your whole hand down on the piano.

Like, you're gonna be in the right ballpark of the note, but you're not gonna hit the exact note very clearly.
