The Internets: Take the Hearing Test


"Say wha?"

Throw on some headphones and take the hearing test.

I could hear up to 16 kHz, but couldn't hear 17 kHz. You? (Don't count the pops at the beginning and end. Just the tone itself.)

As you probably know, your hearing deteriorates as you get older. And being exposed to loud sounds doesn't help.

Remember when teens were using a high-pitched frequency called The Mosquito, The Repeller and Teen Buzz as their ringtone so their teachers couldn't hear the phone ringing in class?
