Mysterious. As a Laurel-seeker, you want the bass boosted as much as possible and the treble attenuated as much as possible. Try the frequency-shifted versions:

Start with the version up 20%. If that doesn't work, go up to 30% and then 40%. (I advocate that order, because we want to know the minimum shifting required by your ears.)

For Yanny-seekers, go in the opposite direction.


OK, I did that.

Interesting on the Down 20 and 30 I finally heard Yammy. The rest are still Laurel. As they're supposed to be. https://www.wired.com/story/yanny-and-laurel-true-history/


Laurel sucks.

Yanny Forever! Laughing

Sorry Yanny lovers, but it's Laurel.

The voiceover artist behind the soundbite even said it was 'Laurel'.

Grrr... the Hun cannot even get the guy's name right. And there I was about to complain about them referring to him as a "voiceover artist", rather than the far more glamorous (to me, at least) "opera singer" [as the wired.com article Stui gave a link to on the previous page said] .
