It takes ten times the power to seem twice as loud.

Ten times the power is 10 dB, that is 10 times as loud.

** ********.

Most would say it was 2 or maybe 3 times as loud.


Twice as loud would be 3 dB.


** ******** again.

+3dB is only slightly louder.

+1dB is almost unnoticeable.


In one respect you are right +1 dB is just detectable.

** I am right in all respects.


That is how it was originally defined.

** Bull****.

+3dB is twice the power. To my
mind that is twice as loud.


** Insanity.
