this is a dumb "gotcha" thing. There's clearly two audio tracks. A deeper voice saying Laurel and a softer voice whispering Yanny at the same time. It's not an illusion of any kind.

On my laptop, all I can hear is Yanny the way the current audio levels are setup.

Huh turns out everyone is just hearing links

I'm calling bullshit, they mixed two separate tracks. I hear both at the same time. Yanny has a slight delay behind Laurel, actually.

This one is much less of a mind thing than the whole White and Gold thing.

It just outputs whatever based on how shit your frequency range is.

My good speakers/headphones clearly output "Laurel" and my shit iphone/earbuds clearly output "Yanni".

laammmeee

So you're saying that the Laurel faction is objectively superior?

From the same speakers (my iPhone) I clearly heard Laurel and my wife heard Yanny sooo

But I hear both, soooooooo how do you explain that? Shitty laptop speakers here, Laurel is much more prominent, but I was able to hear both on the first listen.

Yanny and Laurel? That some kind of Depression-era comedy duo?

Yanny is all I hear, be it pitched up or down or when backed by a rhythmic smoke alarm.

Eat dick, Yanny fans. It's conclusively proven that the recording is of the word laurel, from cnet (watch till the end).

Oh, like the intro of Purple Haze?

Some said tritones were 'the devil in music' but Jimi claims to not have known that at the time and just thought it sounded cool or whatever.
