How good is your hearing ? And how do you know ?

I think she can definitely hear the cogs whirring in your head GK.

I suspect the vast majority of the older members on this forum will struggle to better 13k hearing tbh, no shame in that at all.
And does it mean I enjoy my system and music any less?
Heck no!
And does it mean I cannot tell Schiit ( sorry could not resist!) from Gryphon?
Heck no!

Think the OP will be doing an impression of "Buster Bloodvessel" soon.... Lol

Omg....

You got to be codding me!

With the ops original premise on the thread don't you think it started off badly and as a bit of a farce to start with?

Could be interesting thread but I am not sure the original intent was 100%.

What’s that you say?
Can you speak up a bit please!

Test was maybe 4 months ago, 13k is it for me now which frankly I am surprised I still am at that level.
With all the live bands up against the massive stacks of the 70,s and 80,s. Playing bass in my band.
And working in heavy machinery manufacturing for last 40 years!

Fortunately no tinnitus yet!

Yes I wear custom ear plugs at work and have done for decades but not at concerts or when I was playing bass and I was always astonished at what spl I could achieve with a Peavey 100watt tube head and 2x15 cab!

Now how does any of that affect my listening enjoyment or ability to detect changes with different components, cables, tweaks etc?

Not at all I believe.

I am happy, I can hear changes, I enjoy my music, like right now.
That is all that matters to me.
