As for me...
I used my V-Moda M-100 headphones with my old Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop.
When using a medium-low volume level of 8%, I could hear up to 17,000 Hz, could hear a pitch down to 15 Hz, and could feel a rumble down to 13 Hz.
I could hear 18,000 Hz with the volume at 14%, could hear 19,000 Hz with the volume at 27%, could hear 20,000 Hz at 64% volume, and could hear 21,000 Hz with the volume at 100%.
I could feel a rumble at 10 Hz with the volume at 10%, could feel a rumble at 5 Hz with the volume at 25%, could feel a rumble at 4 Hz at 32% volume, at 3 Hz at 45% volume, at 2.5 Hz at 75% volume, at 2 Hz at 85% volume, and at 1.5 Hz at 95% volume.
Cool stuff!
Give it a try....
