I found a rather comprehensive website for testing your hearing & perception.BTW, turn off ALL DSP and tone controls of course before running any of them.
I found the blind ABX low-pass test to be quite difficult and interesting. It plays white noise or low passed white noise and you have to guess which one the sample was. You are provided with reference samples of each.
I passed at 98% at 15 KHz, but failed at 16 KHz.
I also did well on the supposedly 'absolute pitch' test, but I didn't use absolute pitch. I used relative pitch--because it told you after each trial whether or not you were right, and when I got one right, I then used a good sense of intervals to name the next one reasonably well. So I passed well above chance, but I really don't have that good absolute pitch. (i.e. hear a tone, and name it).

How do you/they verify you are using the correct volume for the tests?

Got try the site. They have a calibration procedure, it is probably off by a few dB but given that the range is in tens of dB, no huge deal.
