Try like 3-5 HZ with them at a low comfortable volume. Mine like them and become less vigilant when I have them playing

How are you getting your cat to wear headphones?

So here's the thing: I feel like everyone says that (you can't hear or be affected by binaural unless you wear hearphones) but you can still hear the waves, knowmsayin'?

Can't really explain it beyond that but I have an app that does them and I can often hear the same in music, without needing headphones or whatever. I'm pretty sure I'm not Just hearing aural illusions

The point is that your brain does create an illusion. You play two different frequencies, one in each ear and your brain creates the third based on the difference. This doesn't work without headphones.

You can still feel it tho, maybe its in a different way, there's like a vestibular effect to it
