        Seems like it depends on the frequency. For me, I hear Yanny at lower frequencies and Laurel at higher ones.

        “Yanny” is caused by overtones that are heard more loudly on small speakers.

        Imagine if this was happening with MOST of the words you hear throughout the day. Constantly try to figure out what people are saying. Now you know what it’s like for people with #hearingloss. Good news! There’s a fix for that, it's called @soniccloud http://www.soniccloud.com/download

        It’s Yanny. I actually hear Yam-me. I’ve tried really hard to hear Laurel and it just isn’t there. I’ve played music since I was 12 so it’s not because my ear sucks!
