    • Can you hear those notes or not? If not, what do you hear? just dead silence?
      I don't hear a blessed thing. Those sounds simply do not exist for me.

      • A pity, those are the frequencies that angels speak in.

            I heard up, and then down to 20. The last couple, no.

              Brilliant...


              I can hear the 1hz just fine. I suspect the audio compression has something to do with it because I doubt I'm like Daredevil over here. (well I also have to jack up the volume)

              • Actually I wonder if I'm actually hearing the note or just the distortion because 1 hz doesn't have as much of a bassy resonance as I would expect.

                • On the test pattern, 1000-100

                  Can't hear anything lower than 100 on my speakers.

                    • If it makes you feel better, Ben, most things about 1000 HZ are probably just obnoxious sounds to most people.

                        • I found this test. More interesting (well to everyone but Ben) cause it goes much higher...



                          My laptop stopped at 25000 HZ but I could hear all frequencies with headphones... I wonder if I'm actually hearing it or the distortion. I don't think I have great hearing.

                            Most audiologists only test up to 10k.

                            • Part of it is bone conduction. I've been tested just with bone conduction and the hearing is fine.

                              • I suppose I have average acuity (which I'm assuming the definition is ability to pick up soft or distant sounds), but could my ability to pick up frequencies be greater than average? Doesn't seem likely but anyone try the second test?
