At 26 I managed up-to 17khz, how about you guys?

[PalletTown]

I'm 19 and I managed up to 17 as well

[Daedroth]

I'm 24, and I could only hear up to 15KHz

[Azusa]

I'm 25 and i got up to 14 kHz

[Xahid]

I could hear all of them with my headphones maxed.
I couldnt hear past 17 kHz at normal volume.

[Jimmy0]

I am 21 and can only hear up to 16kHz...

Perhaps if I put earphones in I would be able to hear a bit further.

What ist the Frequency Response?

The frequency response specifies the lowest and highest frequency that the acoustic transducer can reproduce. These limits are always set at the point where there is a 3 dB drop (on the lower and upper frequency limit). Unfortunately, this is not standardized, so it is often the case that some manufacturers “cheat” a bit. Whether headphones really have a frequency response of 20 to 20,000 Hz, for example, remains an open question. The question of what the curve of the frequency response looks like also remains open. Is it linear, or does it go up and down? You would be able to see this on the frequency response curve, but it is rarely included, since it looks pretty “horrible” for most headphones.

I am 43 and 12 was the highest I got.

Ha, your ears are as good as new!

[qdave]

Wow my ears are surprisingly good.
28 and i could hear 17khz.

[Shaun]

31 and 17khz too. I heard a feint 18khz but we'll stick to 17

[~Neowin~]

Iam 29 and I hear 17KHz.

At first I was worried as I couldn't hear 14+KHz and it was a problem with the headset

Most humans cannot hear past 20! At your age that would put your hearing at superhuman levels! Sorry, but I seriously doubt that you can hear those higher frequencies!

I'm 53 and can hear 16 clearly and I am almost sensing something at 17, perhaps I am imagining that I can, not sure!
