I have almost total hearing loss in one ear. And listening to speakers, not headphones. Cheap speakers at that. ($9)

I remember in the 7th Grade the Music Teacher declared me a monotone , the rest of the class were either sopranos or altos *(:>* When I sing chickens die and dawgs cry *(:>*

80.6% Correct

I think I was trying too hard to find subtle differences and probably ranked ones as being different that were really the same.

EDIT: Yep, I looked through the answer key and 6 of the 7 I got wrong were actually the same yet I thought they were different.

I got 80.6%. I was thrown off on at least two where I clicked the button as soon as I heard a difference and it started playing the next one before I expected it. I think I might have done better if I had been playing music recently.

I did not see the answer key.

Keep clicking the arrows after the results; it eventually gets there.

77.8% correct, even though I took the test using a $2 pair of American Airlines headphones. :thumbsup:

Yeah, I don't think the test is really affected by the quality of the speakers. You could spend 10x the amount on audio equipment and yet only realize a tiny fractional increase in the quality every time.
