  2. The Hum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hum

    The Hum is a name often given to widespread reports of a persistent and invasive low-frequency humming, rumbling, or droning noise audible to many but not all people. Hums have been reported all over the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada. [1][2] They are sometimes named according to the locality where ...

  3. Tensor tympani muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensor_tympani_muscle

    The tensor tympani is a muscle within the middle ear, located in the bony canal above the bony part of the auditory tube, and connects to the malleus bone. Its role is to dampen loud sounds, such as those produced from chewing, shouting, or thunder. Because its reaction time is not fast enough, the muscle cannot protect against hearing damage ...

  4. Infrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrasound

    Infrasound, sometimes referred to as low frequency sound, describes sound waves with a frequency below the lower limit of human audibility (generally 20 Hz, as defined by the ANSI/ASA S1.1-2013 standard). [1] Hearing becomes gradually less sensitive as frequency decreases, so for humans to perceive infrasound, the sound pressure must be ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephant_communication

    Infrasonic calls are important, particularly for long-distance communication, [1] in both Asian and African elephants. For Asian elephants, these calls have a frequency of 14–24 Hz, with sound pressure levels of 85–90 dB and last 10–15 seconds. [15] For African elephants, calls range from 15 to 35 Hz with sound pressure levels as high as ...

  6. Perception of infrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perception_of_infrasound

    Perception of infrasound. Infrasound is sound at frequencies lower than the low frequency end of human hearing threshold at 20 Hz. It is known, however, that humans can perceive sounds below this frequency at very high pressure levels. [1] Infrasound can come from many natural as well as man-made sources, including weather patterns, topographic ...

  7. Tinnitus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinnitus

    Tinnitus is a variety of sound that is heard when no corresponding external sound is present. [1] Nearly everyone experiences faint "normal tinnitus" in a completely quiet room; but it is of concern only if it is bothersome, interferes with normal hearing, or is associated with other problems. [6]

  9. Stereophonic sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereophonic_sound

    In this system all the low-frequency rumble was in the left channel and all the high-frequency distortion was in the right channel. Over a quarter of a century later, it was decided to tilt the recording head 45 degrees off to the right side so that both the low-frequency rumble and high-frequency distortion were shared equally by both channels ...
