May 19, 200718 yr Hey guys I was wonder what your hearing is at right now. Go to this link http://www.jimmyr.com/blog/hearingloss.html and answer the poll and how high can you hear. I can hear 19,000 but hardly and 18,000 perfectly Note: Oh and don't turn your speakers up to high may hurt your ears
May 19, 200718 yr Author I'm convinced my job is making me deaf, but 18000 is still respectable. what job do u have?
May 19, 200718 yr Well I'm probably the youngest one here and I heard the 22000 barely. I'm not sure if I actually heard it because my ears are ringing right now. But I KNOW I heard the 20000.
May 19, 200718 yr The last time I had my hearing checked I couldn't hear over 9,000. Both of my eardrums have been lanced several times because of ear infections. At the beach several years ago, I had the right one implode in a pool. Heard swishing sounds for weeks afterward......
May 19, 200718 yr I could hear 16k quite well. Not so with 17k or above. I have noticed over the years that I am losing hearing in my right ear.
May 19, 200718 yr I can barely hear 17 kHz. Nothing above that. Those General Electric's F404-GE-400, Pratt & Whitney's TF30 and J52-P408 jet engines are not exactly quiet.
May 20, 200718 yr hey Ive got hearing loss according to the Army but I can hear 17k so what does that mean
May 20, 200718 yr -heh...22k. -they gave us a hearing test at work, in a big truck/ambulance/mobile HQ looking thing. I scored the highest out of just under 400 people:thumbsup:. It had volume and Hz. The high Hz at low volume was awesome, if you held your breath your heart beat becomes more audible...so you had to breath hard while the sounds where easy to oxygenate your blood then open your throat and nose and breath really shallow...or, at least that is what I did .
May 20, 200718 yr With my speakers I could hear the 22k but it was staticy, 21k was clear. Headphones I could barely hear 18k. I am going to say that 18k is my true hearing because my speakers are probably retarded. My headphones are much clearer. so, 18k for me I think that my brother can hear higher because he has mentioned ringing or whistling noises before that nobody else could hear. Plus he saw a commercial or something for a high frequency ring tone and he could hear that.
May 20, 200718 yr 15,000 for me must be the roar of the bus deafening me. I can hear the clicks of the mouse every time I try a higher level though. I am 42 and now my ears are sore. Thanks Underpants.
May 20, 200718 yr Well, according to this I can hear 19k. But I know I've heard higher than that (albeit on my headphones; these speakers are crap), because I've heard the mosquito ringtone CLEARLY. Regardless, because I'm on speakers right now and I just wanna be fair, I said 19k. :]
May 25, 200718 yr Wow this is neat. Great find. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a265/Raven1733/goodpost.gif
May 26, 200718 yr i can hear 16,000. but im deaf so thats a problem and kind of a little insulting to me that u make a poll that i really cant...do
