Laurel is very clear on my laptop with headphones. 100%

Yanni is equally clear on my phone through speaker. 100%

[Patricio Swayze 17058]

Yanny. Tried a few times and heard yanny each time. Tried an hour later, still yanny as a motherfucker.

[Macanudo 12979]

I don't hear a pan flute at all.

[Sbbruin 21856]

Both my kids and wife hear yanni.  They are all fucked in the head.  All I hear is

You keep hearing the sheriff is near?

[Newdoc 3440]

I hear "Yammy" so I'm out.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8817]

[NotActuallyALonghorn 4976]

They played it on the news this morning and I heard one (yanni I think) and my wife turned on the blender while they were repeating it and i heard the other while the blender was running.

When she turns on the blender do you piss yourself and forget who you are for a half hour or so?

[clapclapclap 9000]

Laurel is the only correct answer.

[Chuychanga 133]

 I have some low frequency hearing loss and I hear Laurel. My dad has high-frequency hearing loss and he hears Yanny. 

[Eastwood 4394]

I hear both at the same time. Sounds like a high pitch voice and a low pitch voice talking over each other. On a PC with surround sound headphones.

[Chuychanga 133]

I was able to make myself hear Yanny once and then it melded back into Laurel. 

[Zepol87 9186]

Heard Laurel last night but today Yanny

"Yanny" on studio monitors.

"Laurel" on cheap earbuds.

Humble brag?  Those with money hear Yanny, the poors hear Laurel.

I hear Yanny no matter how I listen to it.  I even tried this and hear Yanny no matter how I change the slider on laptop or desktop:

Well, those monitors cost less than a lot of shaggy surly wristwatches, so not really.

I hear Yanny because that's what it is and anybody who says it isn't is a lying liar possessed by demons.

Finally after going  to the nytimes site and sliding it way to the left (cancelling out the high frequencies) did I hear the laurel, but still underneath the yanni.  I hear them both now, now that i know what I'm supposed to be listening for, but still yanni on top.

I love how 3 journalists had to write that article

[HiggyBaby 2529]

Mine hears "Larry".

Tried it again in a different environment (less ambient noise) and it went with Laurel

Do you like those shows where the guy in the mask reveals how the magic tricks are done? Me either.

It's Yanny

[The University 851]

damn them for fucking with the spaghetti in my skull. this morning it was obviously yanny. tonight, it's clearly laurel. 🤔

[SmokeyTheBear 5562]

I hear laurel but did a test on my 5 year old and he heard yanny. I think it has to do with age/ear damage and the pitch thing everyone has already stated.

[Vic Mackey 47041]

Anyone who hears Yanny likes steak well done with ketchup.

[d.plainview872 175]

Is this the topic were idiots post their opinions on something idiotic? I am in. Hehe.

[Apep 645]

It’s Laurel. The creator admitted it.

[Vic Mackey 47041]

It’s Laurel. The creator admitted it.

This goes back to what I was saying earlier. Anyone who didn't say Laurel was full of shit and looking for attention. They heard it clearly being Laurel but went with the other option for the sake of going against the grain. And then being fucking lame by saying it was because of their great hearing and superior speakers and headphones lmao.

Dumb assess.

Sounds like “yarry” at first, but if I focus on the lower frequencies I can clearly hear Laurel. Couldn’t hear it in a way that was Yanni.

This is what I heard.  I also heard it before knowing what I was choosing between, so I had no prior bias.  If I remember correctly, you are a musician so this actually makes more sense to me because your ears, much like mine, are much more sensitive to tone than the average human.

['stache 21816]

It's almost as if your age and other factors determine how well you can hear certain pitches and frequencies!!! This kind of shit pisses me off because it reminds me how uneducated people are wrt to basic science (not necessarily here but all over social media for sure).

Ignore the stupid Aggy hat,

 

The nerd video explains it. Pitch changes on different devices I guess and people hear the pitch different. I heard no L sound in real time at first, just a y (more like yarry than yanny) but I heard the laurel at the higher pitch. Went back to the original and heard just regular laurel. Just fucking weird but I guess it’s science.

['stache 21816]

Just listened again and it’s back to “yarry.” Fucking weird.

[HiggyBaby 2529]

Be careful guys. Backwards it’s Satan.

['stache 21816]

Red room. Over there.

[Equinox 95]

As I was laying in bed last night with the TV on, I swear I heard Yes......Yes.

 

Or maybe my wife was fingerbanging herself.

[Baboontyme 2812]

Probably posted earlier - don't care. The slider below finally helped me hear yanny. Its funny though. If I slide it gradually I have to get damn near off the timeline to the right before I can hear it. But if I jump to say the 2nd tick to the right from the center, I can hear yanny right away. Still, forever and always #TeamLaurel and #TeamWinona
