This conjures up a wonderful image in my head of you chatting away to your guinea pig..."hey I found this weird website, can you hear this..."
-Despite the fact I know exactly what you mean, because I often spend time with a hamster on my shoulder.

Interestingly, if I have the sounds on speakers and move my head, I can hear the 18 & 19 kHz ones and as I don't think I can move my head fast enough to Doppler shift them down by more than 1kHz I wonder why that should be the case.

I also love the image I have of you trying to produce a Doppler shift just so that you can say you heard the sound! (I know I took it our of context - my mental images often do that, both a blessing and a problem at times)

I know its weird but I couldn't 'hear' anything above 17khz but I could 'feel' each sound all the way down to 22khz. I'd liken it to the feeling I get when passing under high tension powerlines. It's like a pressure/second hand 'sound' in my middle ear. The powerlines also cause an uncomfortable all over sensation as well and I''m noticing as I type this that I'm getting that uticaria/pressure feeling in my arms now that I listened to those tones.

yes - similar 'feeling' the sound here.
I know of other people that react to powerlines, but I've never heard anyone describe the way I feel quite so accurately before.

The only one I couldn't hear was 19. Was 22 a buzz sound or is that just background recording noise? Coz I didn't hear a screech on 22 like the rest. I'm 27.

with the volume at a decent level i can hear up to 21 kHz. the 22 kHz sounds like a lower pitch than 21, so even though i can discern the sound i would say i am not hearing it properly.

Some of those hurt my ears.

22khz, and 19 yrs old. The lower frequency ones were harder to hear, if in fact they played at all.

19 and 20 are faint but I can make them out. 18 I can hear pretty well with the volume up. I'm 26.

17.4 khz is very faint, I can hear 17 khz. I'm 16. Before when I did it, I was tired and the clock was ticking loudly. I had to volume all the way. With headphones, I can hear all of them.

I was the reverse - 17khz was very faint but 17.4 was pretty audible.

I'm 28 & I heard em all. Top stuff sounded the loudest & sounds got fainter as I went down. I had my headphones on & volume turned up all the way thou. I was always told that my hearing was better than average when I head hearing test but I have very bad vision so maybe my hearing is some kind of adaptation to compensate. Despite having good hearing; I can have problems making out specific sounds, noises, talking ect when there's other noises. Maybe it's related to sensory integration disorder or something

I could hear them all right up to 22khz but like someone else said, above 19khz it's more like 'feeling' them than hearing them. I often hear noises like that, and when I say something about it, the other people with me can't hear them. But I often struggle to hear people talking when they're right beside me. I actually went for a hearing test a couple of years ago because I was convinced I was going deaf, but my hearing is better than normal. Oh, and I'm 37.

Putting my ear to the monitor speaker, I heard 20. I don't have head phones and wonder if there is another tier.
