DB info

ok well I was casually looking threw my health book today and something caught my eye: it was decibels levels and how loud they are.

the first was a whisper at 30 dB.

just normal talk was about 60 dB.

a shotgun was about 130 dB.

then at the bottom was a rocket launch site at 180 dB.

after all of that it said anything above 140 can hurt your ears badly and 180 would cause Immediate and irreversible deafness.

Just thought I would finally clear some of that up for ya guys.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Yes, I know that the bass record to date is like 194.6 dB, I wonder if that would cause you to go blind or throw up or somethin' else? Someone try it out and tell us, if you make it out alive...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Check my sig. And shooting for low-mid 140's come summertime. Have to stay sealed (**** regular cab).

 
Originally posted by violator5spd I thought the record was something like 179db? Or are you just talking about bass in general, not in a car...
I've seen a thread in somewhere around here that was something like "new record of 194.6 dB" Im not sure who set it though. but wow that would be loud.

195 is probably impossible ...record is like 177.7 or something

Yeah, i'm not that old either. I just want a little more outta my system. I can put it together for fairly cheaply too. But one thing i'm gonna make sure is to have a remote bass control so i can turn it down for driving.

You might have, but I doubt it's true. I know people have talked about breaking the 180db mark, so I don't think someone would jump from 179 to 194db...that would be insane...
