so am I the only one who finds these notes make them shiver? I mean it's not that it bothers me but when the note stops I find myself feeling dizzy almost... it's hard to descirbe... Kind of like I need to catch my breath... Nice up man...

i took the test again, and found the problem! for all of you people whose hearing range mysteriously stops at 17KHz, try downloading the sample and playing that. i think 17KHz is the cutoff for the player. this is the same issue with the mosquito siren samples.

I'm 57 and I can hear all the way up to 20 khz.
Normal would be up max 15 khz - something is wrong here.. ;)

I'm about to turn 28. I didn't hear past 15 KHz until I cranked the volume. Then I was barely able to detect 16 KHz and 17 KHz.
