I guess my ears are OK

You are the typical teenager
You can hear the frequency of the mosquito teen repellent - but probably not for much longer!

The highest pitched ultrasonic mosquito ringtone that I can hear is 17.7kHz
Find out which ringtones you can hear!


My 15-year-old daughter cuts off exactly where I do. Pretty good considering I've done my share of damage, with circular saws, compressors, and other such tools, and have at times had some tinnitus that lasts for days. Hasn't been bothering me much lately though.

Actually I've always been kind of sensitive to high frequencies. I sometimes walk into a room, wince, and say "What the HELL is that noise?" and walk around until I find the monitor someone's left on with no signal input, and turn it off.

Most of my hearing about 15khz is gone. Monitors don't bother me as much anymore.
