I can hear slightly higher frequencies than most, or at least I used to be able to. Back when TVs used cathode ray tubes I’d have problems with the small portable TVs because they would emit an annoying high pitched tone. Even high pitched tones unintentionally mixed into records. The world is designed for people with typical senses.
My buddy has a CRT. It makes a very high pitched noise, close to 18900hz. But it’s not above what most people can hear, most humans can hear up to 20,000hz. Over time this decreases of course. But every time I go to this guy’s house I can hear the CRT going, so loud, so annoying.
