Any process that restricts, stops or prevents a cell from specifying into an auditory hair cell. Any process that mediates the specification of a cell into an auditory hair cell. The process by which the cellular identity of auditory hair cells is acquired and determined. The process involved in the specification of cell identity. Once specification has taken place, a cell will be committed to differentiate down a specific pathway if left in its normal environment. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of an auditory hair cell. The process by which a cell becomes committed to become an inner ear receptor cell. The process whereby a cell becomes capable of differentiating autonomously into a neuron in an environment that is neutral with respect to the developmental pathway. Upon specification, the cell fate can be reversed. The process whereby the developmental fate of a cell becomes restricted such that it will develop into a neuron. Process by which a cell becomes capable of differentiating autonomously into an auditory hair cell in an environment that is neutral with respect to the developmental pathway; upon specification, the cell fate can be reversed.
