In Reply to: RE: It's old news (2005) - but I live in the woods... Tests confirm hearing above 22 kHz. posted by Werner on September 1, 2009 at 03:37:01:
And so is 24 kHz at those 88 dB - increase the sample size, and you'll probably find somebody with 25 kHz at 85 dB. But that's not the point.As I pointed in the post below, such high frequencies in the musical content, at a level significantly lower that the rest of the spectrum, will manifest themselves most likely as "air", "space", "depth" and something else along those lines. If you know what to listen for, you'll most likely detect the difference - in other words, I don't buy "to be masked entirely" argument.
As for whether it adds sonic value - that's up to every individual to decide for himself, but we're audiophiles here, right?
