Thats only a 15khz tone - most people under 50 should be able to hear that.

A more accurate test of hearing is a sine sweep from 10 to 22khz - you just find the point in the file that you can't hear the sound anymore. You also have to be careful about what type of sound card / headphones / speakers you use for the test. Many sound cards distort the upper frequencies due to re-sampling techniques (ie.. all Creative cards) and bring inaudible frequencies into the audible range. Many speakers also cannot accurately represent such high frequencies.
