Going from -50dB to -44dB is a much louder change than going from -6dB to 0dB. Human hearing is logarithmic. The dB is measuring ratio of sound pressure level

Human hearing is logarithmic. The dB is measuring ratio of sound pressure level and it's accurate that +/-3dB is almost doubling/halving of the SPL.
- davrosthedalek 1y agoThat doesn't make sense. -50dB to -44dB and -6dB to 0dB is the same change in power, as a factor. If human hearing is logarithmic, the same factor produces the same increase in loudness.
