It doesn't need to be "compared" to anything. Just a chart of noise in dB vs. performance would suffice.
That way you can glance at the chart and say "at this performance level, I can expect it to make this much noise"
- warrenm 4y agoIt does need to be compared to something - 72dB is "loud" in a quiet room It's pretty "quiet" in other contexts
- qup 4y agoIt can just be measured and reported, and the user can decide for themselves?
- warrenm 4y agoHonestly, almost no one understands decibels ... beyond "less if better" (for some things) :) I took a whole semester class in college on the physics of sound - decibels and loudness are just bleeding weird :)
