Speaker Test

Send short, low-level tones to the browser's left, right, or dual-mono stereo route. Decibic generates the signal; only you can confirm what came from the physical output.

Protect your hearing before you start

Lower the system and hardware volume first. Keep headphones off your ears while setting the level, then stop immediately if a tone feels sharp, loud, or uncomfortable.

How to use

  1. Acknowledge the safety check with system volume low.
  2. Test Left, Dual mono, and Right, or run the guided sequence.
  3. Record what you heard; do not treat it as an automatic diagnosis.

What this check can tell you

The browser requests a known stereo route. Your listening notes can help spot silence, swapped sides, or downstream mono mixing worth investigating.

What it cannot verify

  • It cannot hear, identify, calibrate, or certify physical speakers.
  • It cannot measure loudness, distortion, frequency response, wiring, or channel placement.
  • Silence does not prove hardware failure; check mute, the selected system output, cables, and app routing.
