Me too! Noise Addicts. If someone finds a higher freq test, please post.

I'm at home and now I can hear the 17k file, whereas at work, the highest I could hear was the 15k file. So, it's what my speakers can reproduce and not what I can hear. I don't have a good method yet of connecting my computer to my avr.

The limiting factor(within reason) is the speaker...my cheap earphones go WAY beyond my laptop speaker. I'll bet I could do 26khz+ if I can find an online test that goes that high. 22khz was easy on the e-phones.

I hear the 22k on that second page, but it doesn't sound like 22k. It sounds like a low-pass filter, and aliasing artifacts. My sound card supports up to 96k (yeah, it's old, but studio quality), so that shouldn't be the limit. It's probably the MP3 encoding.

Adrian, even if you had the "girly-ears" as Mark suggested, there's no way that an actual 22KHz would be "easy" except at an extremely high sound level, considering that hearing is less sensitive at high as well as low frequencies. Possibly Chris's comment should be considered.
