Music How damaged is your hearing?

[Chronictank]

Can you hear THIS? Musicians high frequency hearing test | NoiseAddicts music and audio blog

Average for a 25 yr old is about 15Khz

Managed up to 18Khz, but i think some of that is after effects from last nights music

 

[TdC]

12KHz and it's over. but then my ears are trashed :/

 

[Overdriven]

16k, and that's still with a fluid build up in my left ear.

21 year old.

 

[Ezteq]

this is interesting because i can generally hear high pitched stuff fine, its lower pitched noises (like people voices) I usually don't hear

 

[Mey]

21 years old, cuts out at 20hz.

 

[Edmond]

I've had bad ears for a few years now, not due to loud music, more the fact that i stick things in them (no TdC, not like that)

I usually have a constant buzz in them, but i could hear 20hz, which surprised me

And i'm 30 (+10)

 

[Vladamir]

18 Khz for me, 21 years old.

 

[Lamp]

I'm 160 years old, and I can hear someone blinking on the outer rim of Omicron Persei-8

 

[fettoken]

23y/o, and i could barely hear 17hz. I am f*cked later on.

 

[Aoami]

website wouldn't load, does that mean i'm deaf?

 

[Lamp]

no, just stupid

 

[Aoami]

very clever

 

[georgie]

I could hear 8 ,12 and 15. Not 10 though, weirdly.

My hearing is fucked though.

 

[Aoami]

I can hear up to 21khz which is quite good considering i lived in clubs for 2 years, listen to my music at 300000 decibels all the time and play my guitar louder than the fucking sun whatever that means

 

[BloodOmen]

25 years old and I can just say hear 17khz, after that its completely blank.

 

[Genedril]

I can just get 17 - after that it's a blank.

Though I am 35 & have spent a lot of time stood in front of my Marshall stack.

Sorry, turned it off.

Not sure about my hearing, 16-17 i think at 29.

 

[pikeh]

16 at 23.
Weird, I could hear 17 and not 16. :s

Constant loud iPod usage, guitar player, etc

 

[cHodAX]

Well this is nuts, the early ones I can hear, some of the middle ones I can't but the later ones I can.

 

[aika]

24 years, cuts at 21khz

 

[Urgluf]

hmm I can't hear 15 or higher.. I hope its my soundcard that is fucked up and not my hearing.

 

[tris-]

18k

 

[Ch3tan]

28 and I can't hear over 15k, although I was out last night, so may try it again in a few days and see if it is any different.

 

[Shagrat]

14khz and the its all gone....

37 and too many years of drum and bass and late night gigs I suppose......

 

[- English -]

depends how loud i put my speakers lol

 

[mooSe_]

18 years old and can't here anything above 17.

It isn't nuts, this test is just a gimmick though where you can cheat all you want ( turn up the volume). In a proper hearing test they map out for each frequency what volume you need a tone to be, to be able to hear it and thus how much (if any) hearing loss you have.
In your case you might have some for their middle range.
A lot of MP3 tracks leave out all of the sounds with 16Khz freq or higher, so that might explain why you could still hear those tones.

I was expecting one of the mp3's to be either Rick Ashley or that fucking Exorcist clip :/

 

[kiliarien]

Well this is nuts, the early ones I can hear, some of the middle ones I can't but the later ones I can.

Same for me, found 19 & 20k hard, but 20 and 21k were fine - same volume throughout ofc.

I've never been much of a clubber, still it's weird.

 

[Tilda]

I could hear all of them, but i think my hearing is damaged sometimes, go figure!
