Sound Test Online Free | Test Your Audio Quality 2025
Ever jumped on a video call only to realize your headphones aren't working? Or worse, everyone can hear you but you can't hear them? Yeah, we've all been there.
Testing your audio before important calls isn't just smart—it's essential. And the good news? It takes less than a minute.
Why Test Your Sound?
Let's be real. Audio problems during meetings are awkward. Whether you're:
- Starting a new job and joining your first team call
- Interviewing for your dream position
- Catching up with family across the world
- Gaming with friends online
You need your audio working perfectly. No excuses, no surprises.
Quick Sound Test in 2 Steps
1. Test Your Headphones
Head over to our free headphone test and check if both ears are working properly.
Just put on your headphones and click start. You'll hear sound in your left ear, then your right ear. Simple as that.
If you only hear sound in one ear (or no sound at all), you'll know right away something's wrong. Better to find out now than during your meeting.
2. Test Your Microphone
Next, try our microphone test to make sure people can actually hear you.
Speak normally into your mic. You'll see audio bars moving and can record yourself to hear how you sound. If the bars don't move, your mic isn't picking up your voice.

Don't Skip This Step
Look, we get it. You're busy. Testing your audio seems like one more thing on your to-do list.
But imagine this: You're 30 seconds into an important presentation when someone says "we can't hear you." Now you're fumbling with settings while everyone waits. Awkward.
Or you're interviewing for a job and can't hear the interviewer's questions. Not great.
Two minutes of testing now saves you from these nightmare scenarios.
