The user perceived quality is a mixture of factors, including the background of an individual. The process of auditory perception is discussed in a wide variety of fields, ranging from engineering to medicine. Many studies examine the difference between musicians and non-musicians. Since musical training develops musical hearing and other various auditory capabilities, similar enhancements should be observable in case of bilingual people. This paper examines the difference in perceived speech signal quality between students from monolingual and bilingual classes. The subjective study was carried out on a group of 30 people, with 15 individuals in each class, aged 16–18 years old, considering three languages: English, German, and Polish. Results of this study may aid researchers as well as professionals active in the field of auditory perception, hearing loss related with ageing, and of course evaluation of networks and services.
