[QUOTE="Ed Lester, post: 5043393, member: 587479"] OK I found my list. here are some excerpts. at 160 dB flashlights exhibit electromagnetic pulsing. 170 dB = 1 PSI 177 dB = 2 PSI 180 dB = 3 PSI 183 dB = 6 PSI 194 dB = 1 atmospher or 14.6 PSI or just over 1 BAR Notice how PSI increases dramatically in the upper dB levels. This is one of the reasons why it is increasingly difficult to get higher dB when you are up to that point. It is much easier to go from 150 dB to 160 dB, then it is to go from 180 dB to 183 dB. Also, the reason why we theorize that 185 dB is the highest possible level to achieve with reproduced sound is because the pressure alone would destroy any materials that we can possibly used today.
