Unlike the other thread I can EASILY hear this one. I guess I'm not getting as old as I thought.

msgwtco · 06-14-2006, 07:12 PM

ivwshane · 06-14-2006, 08:44 PM

MaesterB · 06-14-2006, 09:56 PM

No problems hearing it.

Guess my great hearing goes with my 20/20 vision.

ugh for some reason sometimes i hear that sound in my head when everything's quiet and it's a bitch to get rid off.

Binman · 06-15-2006, 12:30 PM

I didnt hear it until i turned the volume right up, now I cant get the damn sound out of my head!, stupid nearly 30 year old brain and ears!

MSP · 06-15-2006, 12:37 PM

Here's the weird thing - I can hear that tone even at medium / normal volume. But I can't hear a difference in MP3s ripped above 160kbps.

Don't start this again...

Low bitrate mp3 rips sound like they're underwater.

Amazing_Creep · 06-15-2006, 06:07 PM

I don't think I could tell above 160... unless maybe i'm using headphones.

but, as far as stereos go, I can only tell a noticeable difference between 128 and higher, versus lower than 128.

i had headphones when i listened to this the first time and it felt like someone drove a needle in my ear. Then i tried it on the old guys in the office and sure enough they could hear it. Its cool people can figure stuff out like this. Although really isnt this ring tone kinda doing what vibrate is ment to do?
