Hearing Frequency Test

Steps the frequency up bit by bit to find where you stop hearing it. The upper limit of human hearing drops with age, so the frequency you reach gives a rough sense of your ear age.

Upper limit

To measure this properly

  • · Use headphones. Laptop speakers barely produce anything above 15kHz — that is the speaker’s limit, not your ears.
  • · Do it somewhere quiet. Background noise buries the high tones.
  • · Keep the volume low. Turning it up does not raise your limit, it just damages your hearing.
  • · This is for curiosity, not a hearing test. If one ear cannot hear it, see an audiologist.
