if you have audacity or soundforge or whatever. create a pure sine toon and keep going higher and higher untill you can't hear anything anymore. do the test at a constant volume.
and also write how old you are.
my highest was 19000hz. I could "feel" 19200hz though. age: 21

I think mp3s for listeningtest is a bad idea, they'll probably start making noises below the pitch and maybe playback devices will too...

this reminds me of a new phone ring tone that i've heard played during classes at my school recently.
it goes off, and it's really high pitched and annoying, and all the students are like 'shut the fuck up!' and the teachers can't hear a thing. causes a good ruckus :D

some old woman we used to live near had some cat alarm thing to scare cats out of her garden fited, and you could change the frequency it used. and she set it at a level she couldnt hear but everyone else in the street could hear, so everyone had to put up with this high-pitched screech five times every night until she changed it

Just as I thought, just looked at the mp3 of 20.000 hz with the spectrum analyser and it starts to rise at about 12.000 hz. No wonder everyone can hear it. The test on the website is useless.

well, I have repeated the same test using audio mulch. still: 19,000 for me, according to common knowlege it is nearly impossible for a human being to hear something above 20,000.

I don't think it's useless, I can hear the click at the beginning of the sound, but then, when it continues, I hear nothing. So it does not mean I have actually heard the 20,000 frequency, just the "intro".

- it's not the click, I can see the spectrum as it is playing
- Audiomulch might not create a perfect sinuswave - mp3s aren't realy suitable for high pitch testing
I could even hear the "20 khz" mp3 clearly on my very lofi computerspeakers.
I'll see if I can make a better wavetest in csound

I can hear 21000 from that site, I'm 22...
I can't find out how to create sine waves in soundforge! Audacity worked, but it refused to change the frequency.

24 KHZ age 33
though i couldn't really distinguish much pitch variation between the different samples
i would like to try this properly with a tone generator as i have always known my range to go higher than a lot of people's.
i used to have a sample on cd of a tone rising off the top end of audible range then coming back in and dropping out the bottom end etc...i could hear it for quite a while after everyone else had put their hands up (to indicate they could no longer hear)
the orb did something similar during a set at brixton academy in around 1992

The site is wrong.
I opened up a ~osc in Pure Data and ran a sine wav 19000. COuldn't hear it like i heard the one on that site. The mp3 compression fucks with it.
My results
Left ear: 18500 Right ear: 18000 Age: 24 1/2
