How high does your hearing go?

I was just doing poor man compensation of room acoustics with a generated sine wave and eq, and found my cap at age 21 is 17.3 khz... My mother, age 42 couldn't hear above 15.3 khz.
Anyone ever tried to measure this with himself? :) |

| theres a test you can do. it was posted here some while back think i could hear between 17 - 20khz. |

just take a look at speaker frequencies in average, on general they are made to serve the human ear.
anyway your test is a good idea. do it with a count of people and you know which frequencies to use in your productions. |

| i can hear the sound of a tv , and not just mine but almost any one that ive tried to hear. i meen the sound of the screen with the sound on mute , it makes this i pitch hissing sound that is actually super loud. i can close my eyes an tell if the screen is showing a darker image or lighter image. the lighter the screen e.i. white makes a higher pitch freq. try this and tell me if you can hear thesame , none of my friends can hear it and they thought i was nuts when i was talking about it hahaha :crazy: |
