Hearing Test
We have created a series of tests for you to undertake in order to help you get the most out of sound. You will hear a number of different tones during the test sequences, which will determine if a specific frequency needs to be adjusted as you cannot hear it. The Hearing Test will be done for both left and right ears and stereo image in order to provide you with an accurate gain boost if needed. We have tried to make sure you are getting a personalized experience, therefore, falsifying the results is not recommended.
