You could try it on this webpage I think:

That is a pretty cool web page, but there is a major difficulty with using it to measure your hearing, even informally, because your speakers might cut off at the low and high ends so that they don't even make the sound you are trying to hear.


I can't hear anything at 60 Hz on my system, nor at 16 KHz. This doesn't make sense to me though because the low A on my guitar is at 110 Hz, so the low A on a bass is at 55 Hz and I can hear that just fine. I'm sure the overtones help me to hear it, but still. There's also the famous "60 cycle hum" that I can hear just fine.

That is a very cool page though.
