Generation

# Human Hearing Range The human ear can typically detect sounds with frequencies between **20 Hz and 20,000 Hz** (20 kHz). At the low end, 20 Hz sounds are deep rumbles you can almost feel, while at the high end, 20 kHz represents the highest-pitched whistle—though most adults lose the ability to hear these extreme high frequencies as they age. Our hearing is most sensitive to frequencies in the **2,000-5,000 Hz range**, which happens to be where most of the important information in human speech occurs. Sounds below 20 Hz (infrasound) and above 20 kHz (ultrasound) exist but are inaudible to humans, though some animals like elephants and bats can detect them.
