Just for fun: how good is your hearing (especially treble/high frequencies) ?

Two websites to check out

http://www.audiocheck.net/testtones_hearingtestaudiogram.php

and

http://newt.phys.unsw.edu.au/jw/hearing.html

Warning: Don't do this if the results might depress you! Most of us lose some range in treble when we get older. Also, the results on these kind of tests are never the gospel truth, only a very rough estimate if you are super careful with it. You have to see an audiologist to get really accurate results.

Have fun (maybe)! I can only hear up to 14 khz at normal volume, 16 khz if I crank it up super loud.

In one ear I have the hearing of a Basset Hound, in the other I have the hearing of a Post.
