A decent and easy test is whether you can tell if the TV is on in another room with the volume off. TVs produce a tone around 15KHz I think. OK, closer to IDM content: At the end of Ryoji Ikeda's +/- there is a tone which supposedly a listener becomes aware of only when it stops. Well, I can hear it the whole time. (Hint: wear earplugs at concerts!)
