Around the 12,000. But the dogs looked out the French doors at 16,000 to see what was going on.
|
15,300 for me (47 yo) using computer speakers 7,800 for my son (8 yo).

My ears appear to be 15 years younger than me. I am pleasantly surprised, especially since I have had a few rock concerts in my youth that couldn't have been good. Also out hunting, sometimes there is no time to put in hearing protection if you don't want to lose that big game animal. On that one, I may have to invest into a good amplified hearing protection. I have tried cheap stuff and it doesn't work well. But generally, target shooting and bird hunting, I am religious about putting on my protection.

12k for me, but too little ear protection in a race car has taken its toll.

14166

Just above 14k with laptop speakers, My cats did NOT like it much
|
91xx for me. I'm not surprised. In college I had a job in an iron foundry. My job was to stand inside earth mover tire molds and use a small jackhammer to smooth out imperfections in the castings. It was like standing inside a bell.
I've had problems with speech discrimination for years. I hate going to a restaurant with a group. They talk, I sit and look at the wall or try to read their lips. Speech discrimination in the sensorineural hearing loss patient: how is it affected by background noise? - PubMed - NCBI |
Around 3500 at normal volume.
Can hear up to around 10k if I crank the volume up. Turbines, jets, drag cars, firearms, ..... |
I'm 50 years old and got about 13,500, but my wife wouldn't turn the damn TV down so that was in the background even with my headphones on.
|
right about 14K, from the other room the wifey asked what the high pitched noise was.
|
What?
WHAT? Come on sonny, speak up. Didn't take the test. Don't want to know how f*cked up my hearing is. I get a hearing test at work every year. After the last test the tech said to me " You hear men just fine"... I do have trouble hearing women and children. |

Didn't use headphones, environment was not super quiet. I think I did ok. Maybe try to plug one ear and see if there is a big difference between left and right. |
15831 - 37 years old. Played in several loud bands. Guess Im fortunate its not worse.
|
10500 then nothing but then heard it come back around 13,500-14,500 then nothing again.
Anyone else have a gap in frequency like that? Is it cancer? 48 y/o |
13431. OK, I guess...
|
About 6500 in one ear and about 7500 in the other using earbuds. Much worse with speakers.
|
13.7K. not bad considering the abuse I've had- lots of loud in my life.

I heard it all the way to the end (20,000). I've rarely been exposed to loud sounds. I'm 56 YO.

Without hearing aids, 6,000. With them, 7,000. I'm 71, am said to have mild to moderate hearing loss. About two years ago, after a lifetime of loud exhausts and more, I finally caved to my wife's pleas and acquired hearing aids. Man, what a difference! Now, when I'm not wearing them, I feel truly (almost) deaf. I think the most important lesson I learned is that aids are expensive. The very best deal I found, complete with free testing, is at Costco, of all places - $1,900 for the pair, vs. $7,000 at the House Ear Clinic, the supposed go-to specialist in Lost Angeles.
