can you hear this?

[Whoozyerdaddy]

34. I can hear it just fine. I hate that sound. Reminds me of one of those hearing test tones.

 

[chimpy]

I can hear it, though I'm only 16...

Everyone plays it round my school to annoy the teachers and see if they can hear it. Some can, some cant. In fact, I have it on my phone

 

[So]

I can hear it at 21. That said, it'd be pretty easy to build a device that detects it.

LMFAO.... i just turned my speakers up all the way and played it. its 2:30 am and my dog is asleep at the foot of my dad's bed. He obviously cant hear it cause he doesnt understand why the hell my god just went nuts.

 

[Patrick Wolf]

I'm 18 and could easily hear it, it like, pierces your head. And I seem to be able to hear it better through my left ear.

 

[yosuke188]

Loud and clear.

 

[EliteXen]

19 hear very clear even on low volume, but I'll check again tomorrow cause i'm turning 20

 

[JASANITY]

I hear it, and its freakin annoying

 

[91TTZ]

I hear it easily. I'm 30.

I can also hear my monitor, my Linksys router, and my motherboard when I scroll with my mouse (I don't know why it does that).

16.5KHz. Assuming your speakers can even produce that frequency at all.

They've got a fully functional demo version. Try it out yourself and make your own high frequency whines and other fun noises.

That's like stabbing an icepick in each ear...thank you.

[djnsmith7]

[thescreensavers]

[DainBramaged]

i can hear the first three

 

[GeekDrew]

I may have already posted in this thread, I can't remember. lol

A local DJ played a variety of tones that adults theoretically cannot hear. I could hear all of the ones that he played (can't remember which they were, specifically), but they made me feel ill, instantly.

 

[thescreensavers]

my dad 56 coulg not hear it but my little bro was like oww my ears

 

[Exsomnis]

I can hear it, but it's extremely quiet no matter how much I turn it up. I'm twenty years old. Damn that's an annoying sound.

It could also just be quieter because speakers are probably not made to accurately reproduce extreme high frequencies, because most of their customers probably wouldn't be able to hear them anyway. No sense investing much R&D money on a product feature that your customers can't perceive.

Man, that noise is annoying.

Age 29.

I'm not sure how they could broadcast that noise on TV or radio. In both cases, the audio is brick-wall filtered at 15 kHz.

 

[judasmachine]

i can hear it, although i had to turn it up a bit. i'm 31.

 

[Spacehead]

I can hear it plain as day with WMP but not at all with the Dell Jukebox

 

[Slitherythesnake]

Loud and clear, even on low volume.

 

[maziwanka]

i can hear it as well. really freaking annoying. this better not become a freaking ringer

 

[151528]

I could hear it easy, im only 15
