this could frighten a few people.. dont turn it up too loud. also best done on speakers rather than headphones.
i could hear up to 17.7khz anything after that was inaudible.
also dont pay attention to the click when you play each one.. its the tone you need to listen for.
got to 19.9khz but it was painful/annoying to listen to, but not as annoying as 17.7 and 18.8khz
anyone else take this test???
17.7 for me..
but I wonder if its limited by my speakers here in the office.?
I'll have to use my monitors at home to see if it makes a diff
bloody hell, i've surprised myself, i got 21.1khz, can't hear the highest though
16.7... uh oh!
just been making a tune pretty loud tho..
21.1
shit...i must over doin it... id say that festival at the weekend didnt help. but it could be coz my computer humming away right beside me too
:eh: :eh:
no, unless your pc is really loud and the same frequencies, which i doubtQuote:

but ye.. i have to keep it down.
You are a dog :lol:
Or maybe you are a mosquito, you certainly can't be human.
The highest pitched ultrasonic mosquito ringtone that I can hear is 21.1kHz
i could hear 21.1 but not 18.8..
tbh ? i dont really trust this, but i am hyper cynical these days.
test your paranoa on this test...........Quote:

unfortunatly It's flawed.
If you turn it up on 22.1 you get some kind of lower frequency overtones which sound like aliasing or something.
18.8
17.7 khz for me.
oh no i could only hear up 16.7. and that whent right through me... im only 19, does that mean ive got really shit hearing or what? :(
it depends how high a frequency your speakers go upto, are they hi-fi speakers ? pc speakers ? monitors ?Quote:

thats worried me now though, maybe i have got shit hearing :paranoid:
narr it must be the speakers cos i can hear 16.7 pretty clear, dont have to strain my ears to hear that one
yeah, it will be your speakers, they probably don't go high enough, the pc speakers here at work are the same
this got me to wanting to test out my speakers and hearing...
so i came up with my own test.
it goes for 4Hz to 24kHz and it's a wave file, not mp3.
www.patrickdsp.com/audio/4Hz-24kHz.wav
it's not a steady stream, i kicked up a few notches where normal hearing lays. other wise this wave file would be way too long to share.
cheers
21.1 and im a mosquito
lol
I have just gotten over a cold/flu and it left my ears a bit ringy so I will try theis test when they stop.
At least I hope it was the flu that made them ringing..??
the test is wrong. only babies are supposed to hear anything above 19 kHZ. I didnt come any further that 14kHZ last time i did a real test...and now i can hear 21.1...
Also these are mp3's...the compression from WAV to mp3 probably causes a so called mirror frequency, which is a lot lower than the actual tone. That's the thing we are all hearing!

Not quite true.Quote:

I've got a big fat dip in my mid/high frequencies.
I blame the soundsystem in "The End"
Now I can't hear conversations when it gets crowded. Started lip reading again...
14-15 khz yeah... But that's in a real test, with no control over the volume...
If you can put it up as loud as you want you start noticing the tone at a certain point, but not really hearing it..
uhmmm... I think Im a dooog :)
Me have to lip read too...oops!!Quote:
