How We Hear

[David Love]

I don't know about the 7th partial, but it does seem that the higher you
focus your hearing the cleaner the unison will sound.  Since the beats
are magnified in the higher partials, a cleanly tuned upper partial will
tend to make the lower partials that much more in unison.  Since the
lower partials tend to be louder, you hear them almost unconsciously
when focusing on the upper partials.
