I just tried that, I only hear Laurel until I turn the vol up so high it distorts, then I start hearing Yanny quietly at the same time. Feels to me like it's to do with what your brain does with the distortion, lock onto it, or reject or hear through it.But I've discovered that If I listen to the original Laurel (in the dictionary link) over headphones lying on the desk it sounds like Yanny...

I hear both, two different voices overlapping each other and saying their respective words at relatively the same time.
Let me guess: one from the speakers, the other inside your head?
Listening at very low volume on my work notebook it is clearly Yanni. Connecting headphones and listening softly, I hear Yanni, but it changes to Laurel as I increase the volume at which point I noticed "Laurel" is much deeper and masculine. Reducing the volume but boosting the bass changes the previous Yanni into Laurel.
Conclusion: By adjusting the bass and volume on my notebook, it can perform sex change operations.
Yes everything sounds the same. yanny. laurel, even moe, larry, and curly.Well, until we establish the truth I still think all of you hearing Yanny should refrain yourself from discussions if DACs, OPamps and other stuff sound different. Once you hear Laurel you're good to go again.
It's pretty simple to me if one hears anything but laurel save your money and buy a cheap boom box or find another hobby. OTOH I have old h/w I can sell you for a few K that will make that word/phrase sound really good.
That is absolutely brilliant. At first glance "brainstorm" and "green needle" don't even seem to have many 'sounds' in common, so I would never have thought they could be confused.Oh, but it's not that simple....
Oh, but it's not that simple. Try this:
Again, I find that the device it is reproduced on makes a difference. On my laptop, it works perfectly but on my phone it doesn't. Also, various versions of it on the web that have clearly been compressed several times in a row don't seem to work as well as the link above.The Green Needle response was absent here no matter how hard I thought of it.
I keep hearing brain needle!Oh, but it's not that simple. Try this:
On the first one I don't get a distinct version of either, no the second one I hear green needle clearly each time?Oh, but it's not that simple. Try this:
