I haven't experimented with high frequencies (beyond normal hearing range)..., but close... I occasionally have the pleasure ;-{ of touching up notes in a 4-6 rank pipe organ mixture (Scharf/Fourniture/Plein jeu) [which normally have some doubled pitches]. Tuning the doubled pitches which would be at the 1' pitch (pipe length about 1/2") I use resultants. I'll detune one really flat and then as I bring it up to pitch I hear the resultant going down. I don't even listen for the fundamental until the resultant sounds more like a beat.
