I see. Then sorry for misleading topic title.

I understand, and i completely agree for daytime, but during the night, since i dont live in a city, it gets very quiet, there is no noise at all (that i can hear) if it isnt raining/windy/car passing etc., so i assumed that means that background noise is 0dB. Maybe i should get dB meter to measure ...

Thanks, what I meant was that it is completely inaudible from 1m away, so this would mean 0dB at 1m, no?
