Summary

This trial is testing whether adding back information that cochlear implants discard can improve music and speech perception for users.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for cochlear implant users who want to improve their music and speech perception. It's not open to anyone under the age of 18.
What is being tested?
The study tests how changing stimulation rates and electrode locations in cochlear implants affects the user's ability to perceive music and speech by including temporal fine structure information.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-pharmaceutical interventions, typical drug side effects are not expected. However, changes in implant settings may cause discomfort or require an adjustment period.
