RE: Early reflections: 5 ms time window for sound source localisation?

"says that reflections below 1ms are not perceptually distinguishable as a separate sound event and only affect the perceived tonal balance."

Quite true, the time span must be much larger in order to hear secondary radiations as a separate event. Earl Geddes work identified small changes effect the stability of the mono image which is consistent with my listening as commented in an earlier post.
When you remove these "extra" radiations in time, it becomes harder to hear the physical depth when one speaker is playing. When the speaker's "clues" are small enough, one can't easily hear it's distance with your ears.

If you can, set your stereo up outside, away from walls etc, have a BBQ and enjoy what it sounds like and the stereo image with no room effects.
