How Decibels Apply to Music and Sound. In music, decibels are a measurement of Sound Pressure Level (SPL). When we say the speakers at a rock concert are playing at 110dB, what we really mean is that theyâre playing at 110dB SPL. Since the decibel is only a ratio, 110dB is actually a comparison to a different number: 0 SPL.
The range of 60-70 decibels sound pressure level is about as loud as normal conversation in 1 meter distance. The distance from the ears to the sound source is very important to the value of the SPL. Scroll down to related links and look at Table of Sound Pressure Levels.
