hi everybody,
I know this is weird, but what does 85-90 dbs sound like?
I cannot afford to spend $65 on a spl meter from radio-shack right now,so I need some estimates.
I had a friend over, who had measured 85 db with borrowed equipment and he told me to keep turning my amp up till, gosh, the highs were very sharp, and the sound could be heard downstairs and outside(though not loud).
Now, my recording handbook says to monitor at levels people listen at, and all my friends listen at quite low levels.
So please can you give me an estimate of what 85 dbs sound like.
By the way, I like listening to it loud like that, I am just afraid of hearing loss later in life, and I don't want to get the guys downstairs to get mad when I am mixing at 3:00 am
I know this is a thread that might not get any replies, but, hey , I aint mad at you
peace
