17 khz over here.
I wonder how the ones who rated above this perceived it. for me it was total silence and then it was really obvious when it came on, right between 17 and 16k.

For me it was nothing. Couldn't hear the sound or feel anything, no discomfort or ringing, up until just before he said 19kHz, then it was just a high ringing then down to about 16kHz it actually started to really hurt. I wanna know what 22kHz sounds like!

The people that can hear the 22 have sound card issues. Troubleshoot on site and try again.

I heard a sort of sweeping high pitched sound from 22k till 17k then it was just one really high pitched tone till the end.

You heard 22kHz? Are you part German Shepeard? lol



Germans Have sheep?

But yes, I did. It was quieter though.. Is it weird, then?



Only in summer, loads of them but they'll be gone be September.

No seriously you couldnt have heard 22kHz mate, did you listen to the high frequency noise with the bloke speaking over telling you the frequency,



He was obviously hearing the anti-aliasing, also described on the website.

Yeah i read something about "phanotm noises" or something like that, thats what i thought it was. There's no way he could have heard 22kHz surely.
