Default Re: Non-linearity of the human ear

I would say most teens can POTENTIALLY hear upto 20 K, it was interesting that non of the others could do better than about 18K. The lecturer, who was about 45, was deaf to anything above 9K, which I though was really bad.
I too have tinnitus, in my right ear, like a hissy whistle at about 3 or 4k. I have a theory that it might be due to years of driving with the rear window partially down in summer.
