[QUOTE="joel, post: 97264, member: 406"] Just a quick correction on Jims post. A doubling of volume is one Bell or ten dB. In the example given (9dB) the one passage would just about be twice as loud as the other, not three times as loud. Three times as loud would be 30 dB louder. All things being equal to get double the volume you need 10 times the power. For 30 dB increase you would need 1000 times the voltage (10 x 10 x 10) [/QUOTE]
