Please see the thread entitled "Software" for a listing of websites you can use for listening practice with CI. Happy listening! :)
 
I thought I'd copy and paste what I posted on the "Software" thread. Please see below...

Here are a variety of websites where you can find sound samples for listening with CI. I have a CI myself (recently activated) and have found several of these sites to be quite helpful.
