The commonly stated range of human hearing is 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Under ideal laboratory conditions, humans can hear sound as low as 12 Hz and as high as 28 kHz, though the threshold increases sharply at 15 kHz in adults, corresponding to the last auditory channel of the cochlea.
The audio frequency spectrum is defined by the normal range of human hearing, which is 20Hz to 20,000Hz (Hz = Hertz = cycles per second). This frequency range encompasses everything we are capable of hearing, not just music.
