Watching from the same source, yet I believed it to be Yanny and DH said he heard Laurel.

Later in the day, had heard or read that those who thought Yanni was hearing from a mid-upper decibel range and for those that believed it to be Laurel were picking up from a lower decibel range.

It's been a while, iirc, but my audiologist said that I have lost some of my hearing from the lower decibel range. That might explain why I got it wrong.

It's similar to the dress where some people saw white & gold while others saw blue & black.

Laurel, clear as a bell.
Wife says Yanni. She has the better hearing.
I remember a similar post re: the color of a dress.

Are you saying that the people hearing Yanny have something wrong with their ears? I hear Yanny.

I hear Laurel very very clearly. But the more I listen, I can hear the second syllable of Yanny at a higher frequency. I can't seem to find the first syllable though.
