Haha, this is true....it reminds me of my loud obnoxious car audio days, competing in the dB drag events.... I remember people telling me how they had to spend thousands of dollars to double their amplifier wattage just to get 3 more dB on the competition.....
It's funny how now when some guy pulls up with his stereo thumping, I feel annoyed....where did my youthful carelessness for my hearing go? :) anyway, off topic, just feeling nostalgic.... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of David Brodbeck Sent: Thursday, April 07, 2005 3:40 PM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Zap (analog line) and volume > -----Original Message----- > From: Rich Adamson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > 3.0db of gain is roughly equal to doubling the volume to the > human ear. Actually, that's not true. Each increase of 3.0 dB doubles the *power*. But the human ear's response is logarithmic, and the decibel scale is also logarithmic to reflect that. 1 dB is the smallest change in volume most people can perceive. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
