Three Audio Illusions

You know the expression "trust your ears"
There are times when those ears (and brain) can be fooled.
Measurements can tell you one thing and yet, your ears can tell you something very different.
Just as there are optical illusions, there are also some strong audio illusions.
Check out the following link for 3 examples:
