Hi, what do you guys hear? Yanni or laurel

 
 
Once I heard 'Laurel' I tried to hear 'Yanny'. That did not happen.

I know this is about listening, but say both words and note how your tongue is positioned in your mouth...
Laur
Yan...
 
Ha Hà

i can hear both
yanny is layed over the top of laurel

what’s that clicking like typing in the background?
 
There may be another variable in play.

On my earbuds it's "Yanny", and on my headphones it's "Laurel".

The earbuds are a bit tinny sounding, while the headphones are on the warm side.

Maybe I'm like the guy who's only tool is a hammer so every problem looks like a nail, but I'm thinking the playback system matters too.
 
all I hear is laurel loud and clear via the iPad.. but hear clicking otherwise
