Yup. I started listening fast in medical school for studying for US medical licensing exam. It took me a while to work up to 3.5x, but now that’s my standard for judging a good speaker/reader on audible. I’ve listened to 432 audiobooks over the last 20 years or so this way, most in the last 5 years.

Anyhow, most read audiobooks at like ½ - ¾ speed anyways, so it’s not like a YouTube going that fast (were it possible)…but YouTube at 2x is painfully slow for me. I only listen to stuff I can play at 2x
