My hearing range is between 25 - 18500 hertzs and Im only 14

That's the range for my 9 yr old son so not to worry.

Mine goes up to about 17Khz with no problems at the low-end. Perhaps need more volume than others at the extremes of my hearing spectrum.

What are the headphones that you made the tests with? That's the question!

 

[aimlink]

I did so with my ALO K702's.

Sennheiser IE8 and HD 595

 

[iHelp]

30-19000 hz.

I'm 14 too!

And you had the same results with both headphones? I would find it a little strange...

Well, depends on the volume. This thread should be in the general discussion section BTW. Here is are my approximate ranges depending on volume:

Very low (barely audible/in bed listening) volume:

Left ear: 100 Hz - 12.5 kHz
Right ear: 100 Hz - 15 kHz

Low (quiet/background listening) volume:

Left ear: 60 Hz - 14 kHz
Right ear: 60 Hz - 15.5 kHz

Medium (normal) volume:

Left ear: 45 Hz - 15.5 kHz
Right ear: 45 Hz - 16.2 kHz

High (rocking out) volume:

Left ear: 35 Hz - 16.5 kHz
Right ear: 35 Hz - 17.2 kHz

Very high (for testing purposes only) volume:

Left ear: 30 Hz - 17.3 kHz
Right ear: 30 Hz - 18 kHz

I did my testing using Hifiman RE0 for high frequencies and Ortofon e-Q7 for lows. I am 21 years old.

15~15kHz left ear, 15~17kHz for my right ear, now everything sound tilted to the right and lack of airiness to the left.

and why exactly is that?

 

[UtzY]

Yes, Pianist, you are right, I forgot about fletcher-munson curve.

But at the same time I think it really counts the model of headphones you use for tests (It is approved for aural-acoustical analysis, or the headphones are audiometric versions...) Heck, it even counts the listening environment (computer fans,etc or completely sillent)

I got that problem too.

=683&graphID[1]=603&graphID[2]=&graphID[3]=&graphType=0&buttonSelection=Compare+Headphones]That's why!

Besides this, one headphone is actually an IEM and the other have an open design..I presume that you did the tests at your home with a little fans noise and the volume not quite the same...

Yeah, I would never test my low frequency hearing sensitivity with unequalized IE8. lol

Some amps are analog and they go up to 200Khz, and this can help with the highs, see specs SPL Phonitor Headphone Amp
