    Using headphones, I heard 20 to about 18,400Hz

    or until 5:55 on the video

    I couldn't hear anything past about 14.2kHz, went to dead air. My left ear stopped sooner than my right as I expected. Sadly, with tinnitus, I can hear about 8k all day long, with nothing playing LOL

    I need to try this with headphones....and when I'm not sick LOL

    Youtube kind of sucks for this kind of video. On the last video posted if you watch it at 360p the audio cuts out right at about 15khz but if you watch at 720p I can hear it just past 17khz. Using test tones I can hear a little past 18k though which is surprising given the amount of abuse I put my ears through.

    I only ever met one person who "appeared" to hear above 20,000 hz based on description of what they could perceive .

    Re: Can you hear the differences between a square wave and a sine wave

    my concerns in any testing regimen, starts backwards from the last thing in the chain to the source. This means I suspect many headphones of not producing the tones, evenly where I can say "yep, drifts out right about ...." and if I can't trust my headphones, then I'd have to calibrate them against known quantities. Audiologists are supposed to be able to provide the tones, but I don't even know if they guarantee their delivery system above 17Khz, something I do not know, and can't afford to pay to find out.

    if the source is already suspect, as in what setting resolution determines what top end the media pushes into the amp/dac/dap, like said in youTubo, then I certainly wouldn't give this well-meaning thread the headspace it deserves based on at least 2 magnitudes.

    you know, how a magnitude can be.
