On this point I recall when the gravity wave detector first detected a black hole merge, which is of course a LOT of mass and power. It was in the hearing range so they played a .wav. It unironically sounded exactly like a "PLOP" drop of water falling in a bucket - an irony that such a big event and a small event sound so similar.
But as noted in other posts the post you're replying to was based on an incorrect assumption - there's a corrected value in one of the comment threads, and the distance for it to be audible is much closer than originally posted, roughly the Earth-Moon distance.
