Yes, thank you. I was trying to convey that but may not have been clear. The first 10dB increase is ten times louder, and the next additional 10dB increase ten times louder than that (10 x 10 = 100x). I found another good explanation of that here. https://www.healthyhearing.com/report/52514-What-is-a-decibel
