Speaker & stereo test
Check left, right, both channels and stereo movement at a comfortable volume.
Diagnostic visuals retain their original colors and remain visible. Presentation filters and high contrast apply outside this workspace; device-level filters may still affect your observation.
Lower your system volume first. Play each channel and record what you hear.

How to run this check
Lower your system volume first. Play each channel and record what you hear.
Understand the result
PASS describes a received signal or your recorded observation. WARNING calls for another check. USER REVIEW REQUIRED means a measurement alone cannot decide. An unavailable API or denied permission does not establish hardware failure.
What this cannot tell you
Only your listening confirms sound. Browser output cannot measure speaker quality or real-world volume.
If something seems wrong
Check your system output device, cable, mute and balance. Disable mono audio to inspect separation.

Is anything uploaded?
Raw diagnostic input and media are processed locally. Standalone results remain in page memory. Guided checks offer optional coarse session recovery for 24 hours; it excludes media and detailed measurements. Hosting and Google Analytics requests still leave your browser. Analytics receives only broad test-usage categories, never these diagnostic contents. See the privacy policy.
Does a pass guarantee my hardware is healthy?
No. It records behavior observed in this browser session. Intermittent faults, internal components and operating-system restrictions need further investigation. See our methodology.
