normal hearing decibels age
For humans, normal hearing is between â10 dB(HL) and 15 dB(HL) , although 0 dB from 250 Hz to 8 kHz is deemed to be 'average' normal hearing. Hearing thresholds of humans and other mammals can be found by using behavioural hearing tests or physiological tests.hey are not the same as equal-loudness contours, which are a set of curves representing equal loudness at different levels, as well as at the threshold of hearing, in absolute terms measured in dB SPL (sound pressure level).
