Well for what it is worth, that high pitched squeal that was being touted on the news a year or two ago as "a way to force teens to stop loitering around your business without annoying others" (was it 17khz? supposedly older people couldnt hear it).. was truly annoying. I still have reasonably good hearing at the high end, so I am not all that worried. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23614 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
