OP Audiobob old hand Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 84	I guess the title says it all but can anyone please explain why a receiver will display from -80 Db to maybe +17 Db? A display of maybe -30 Db generates an SPL of about 60 Db in my room. Are these indicatations that arbitrary, what ever happened to 0 -10 ?
