I can hear up to 18,000 Hz.

I’ll have to try it with headphones to test one ear at a time, though. My right ear, it doesn’t do so well, I think.

    Woot, I can hear up to the 25,000. I did this test with SoundForge a while back and I had to go ridiculously high in order to not hear the tones. A lifetime of being a shut-in has finally paid off!

    Wait, this is worthless.

    God dammit.

    Any ideas for superheroes whose powers are that they can hear high tones? I can usually tell when a TV is on even if it’s muted and I’m not looking at it. Can I fight crime this way?

    This means you can hear the “kids-only” ring tones and the “annoy the kids so they go away” gadgets.
    Too bad for you, Rod.

    I’m at a barely audible 17, 000 and I don’t care.

    For Rod, on the super hero vein: Banshee. I’m assuming his ears would have to handle high tones or his eardrums would explode any time he utilized his “sonic scream”. Or would it be the other way around? Would he have to be tone deaf? Applying adult logic to his superpower (using the term superpower loosly) I’m thinking Banshee would have to be deaf as his eardrums should’ve been destroyed after his first “sonic scream”.

    Is it bad I can hear 13,000 only when I tilt my head, and 14,000 not a bit?

    Making a doctors appointment…
