Extremely poor audio quality

Chris Jordan
Posted 9 years ago 
Play[Sin[40 2 Pi t], {t, 0, 1},SampleRate -> 44000]

yields extremely poor audio quality. Distorted and noisy, as if the sample rate was much lower and/or the signal was lossy-compressed (Testing here in Chrome 44.)

Anyone know if there's a workaround, and/or if the devs are fixing the cause?

Seems to play quite well on my high-end desktop PC. The only distortion/noise I heard was at the boundaries (start/stop). That's completely expected. I think David's comments about hardware dependency are valid.

This is asking for a 40Hz tone, which is well below the frequency response capabilities of most computer audio systems.

That's no excuse for distortion and noise.

This is asking for a 40Hz tone, which is well below the frequency response capabilities of most computer audio systems. On my laptop, I get a click. On my workstation, which has a good sound card and BX5 monitor speakers, the 40Hz is quite well reproduced.
