Auditory brainstem responses evoked by both clicks and 0.5 kHz tone-bursts were recorded using the derived-band paradigm in 10 normal-hearing subjects. The derived-band analyses showed a similar distribution of activity with both stimuli, the largest contributions coming from the 2-4 and 4-8 kHz bands. Neither the click nor the 0.5 kHz tone-burst is a frequency-specific stimulus, and both would appear to be unsuitable for brainstem response audiometric evaluation of the apical cochlea.
