Threshold of detection Established according to some criterion
Other terms related to threshold • dB HL: Hearing level • dB RETSPL: Reference equivalent threshold sound pressure level • dB SL: Sensation level
HL to RETSPL conversion (Table 3.2 in textbook) What is the SPL value corresponding to a 20 dB HL 4000 Hz tone? Is this the same for other types of headphones/sound field measurements?
