Discrete regions of neural tissue along the anterior-posterior axis of the torus semicircularis act as resonators, each one broadly tuned to a different range of frequencies, and each one responding optimally to the incident sound from a different direction. In this way, a map of auditory space is represented in the midbrain.
沿着半规管环面的前后轴，神经组织的离散区域起到了共鸣器的作用，每个区域大致调谐到不同的频率范围，并且每个区域对来自不同方向的入射声音做出最佳响应。通过这种方式，听觉空间图在中脑中得到呈现。
