Better question, are there any ears?
I'm good until about 16-17ish, got tested.

There are people that can hear > 20Khz and they think a system is lacking without.

I'd say that there are people that think they can hear >20kHz is a more accurate assessment. The placebo effect applies to far more than silver cables and Magic Pebbles.

That was my opinion too but some pretty objective types, confirmed there are some people that have the ability and they have proven it in actually tests.

Mostly those under the age of 25. That accounts for the success of ultra-sonic 'teenager repellent' piezo tweeter/20kHz oscillator gizmos.

Exactly, I may be slightly lower than that.

I am guessing they are more sensitive to certain freqs including the higher octaves and less so with the lower octaves.
My dog didn't seem to react to low bass either.

I'm just curious as to why my dog hate hate high pitch sound in a scream or in some opera. He always go nuts and bark madly... poor lil guy. But then when I played movies with some low bass in a fairly loud volume, he slept through it... I always thought those rumbling and shaking noise would bother him more. Kinda interesting...
Sorry about the OT...
Al,

Ive seen it before somewhere. Does anyone have a chart of what different sounds range in the frequency spectrum. Meaning a cymbol is from x frequncy to x frequency, a male voice from x-x, etc.......? Kind of on topic with the rest of the discussion but not so much so i appologize. Its just something ive been wanting to take a look at again.
