Mosquito ringtone
 
The article states that younger people can hear it while older adults cannot. Who can hear it?

Sample of the Mosquito Ringtone

I had that on an old Samsung 225 phone. Maybe it's different now but when I had it It was just a high pitched sound that didn't require anything special in the way of hearing.

My kids claim they can hear it (and it drives them crazy), but my wife and I can't hear it. :dunno:

Even though I am middle aged and love to listen to loud music I heard it...it sounds like a dog whistle...am I supposed to hear them too??? :rofl:

yes.. it hurts like a mofo to listen to that...

x5GuyInLA 06-12-2006 07:47 PM

heard it, a bit annoying.....i guess all those years of heavy bass hasn't destroyed my eardrums sensitivity yet.

If I crank the vol. way up, I can hear it...

To these old ears it sounds like a 60 Hz hum.

Those HS kids won't be hearing much when they are my
age, after 35 years of Ipods and cellphones glued to or,
stuck in their ears.

What ringtone? :dunno:

Volume cranked up to max., can't hear diddly squat.

19year old ears can hear it.
