Neurons in the AVCN project to the ipsilateral LSO and the contralateral MNTB. The MNTB projects to the ipsilateral LSO. So essentially, AVCN projects to LSO on both sides, but the contralateral projection makes a stop in MNTB. AVCN neurons respond like auditory nerve fibers do. We call them primarylike for that reason. AVCN is tonotopically organized.
