The audibility curve shows that auditory sensitivity is maximal for frequencies between about 500 to 5,000 Hz. This range corresponds to the frequencies of normal human speech, making it easier for us to understand and communicate with one another. Frequencies below 500 Hz and above 5,000 Hz become increasingly difficult for us to hear.
