Here are some studies about how we perceive and are influenced by high frequency sound outside of the audible range:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10848... - musical content above 20kHz (inaudible) improves subjective enjoyment of music - correlates with brain activity
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24722... - shows brain activity caused by HF content
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14623... - shows HF content improves subjective enjoyment and higher comfortable listening level
