Is sound affected by gravity?

Yes. I knocked my monitors off the stand once, and they haven't sounded the same since.

Well, yest, it is! The sound that we hear is a behavior of air molecules. Air is affected by gravity, hence, also sound is affected by gravity.

If my monster speakers fell off a shelf, the impact might set off renewed activity of the San Andreas Fault!
