What is the db gain, pray tell?

The gain on this amplifier is average 10-12 dB over the frequency range. The CEA standard for digital indoor antenna amplifiers is 14 dB or less because higher gain causes issues with the tuners.

Hi Kenneth, I forgot to mention the stated gain: 3dbi. Loads of folks use them for CB and 10 meter ham radio. Cheers, Don

I can't tell you the exact DB level at full volume--I don't have a meter. Full volume is reasonably loud--you should be able to hear it quite well across a BIG room. I never turn it all the way up. It is in my bedroom & that would be too loud. I have to turn it off when the TV is on so I can hear the TV better. Otherwise, I keep it on all the time.

Yes you are right gain not pre amp set to about about 2/3 and RVC. Plus your MP3 player or phone to max

Take the RMS value, multiply it by 4, then find the square root of that number. that will give you you're gain setting in volts. play a 50hz sound clip with the sub unhooked and place the leads from a volt meter set to read ac volts on the positive and negative terminals then turn your gain up till you reach the voltage answer you obtained earlier. following this with any amp will assure that you do not blow the sub. then turn bass boost up to wherever you like it

The gain is generally 3 dB as it is vertically polarized. Most antenna's at this freq are, however the cross polarization loss is up to 6dB, but this is not the antenna's fault. The gain is measured over a non polarized point source which has energy lost in the horizontal direction.

run it clean,no gain it will sound great.if you use the gain ,its all you will need..it has plenty of gain

Not sure but in my application it did not give me any gain. I would not buy it.

Don't know the db level but I can say you can have a normal conversation when it's running. Really quiet for a compressor. I'm very happy with it

Per the documentation, each port provides on average a 7.5 dB gain. http://www.motorolasolutions.com/web/Business/Products/Cable%20Broadband/RF%20Amplifiers/BDA100/_Documents/staticfile/BDA-S4-RA_Catalog_Specifications_-_prelim.pdf

Haven't tried that. I will give it a go today or tomorrow. Get back to me then. So I tested the unit on both program content and commercial content. Both were in the range of 38-40 db. Didn't see any difference in the sound level between them.

This headphone has a volume control and allows you to select from no amplification to quite a bit. I don't know the actual dB rise, but it can be more than a hearing aid that's for sure.

I don't know the exact db's, but it ran in my back yard and I could barely hear it inside the house. You can stand next to it and, to me, I don't think it is anymore than a lawn mower.

Personally, I set the gain at about 3/4 no more. With amplifiers maxing out the volume typically adds distortion which creates poor sound and overdrives the amp. I set the frequency at about 150 or so for music, 120 for movies.

As far as l know (also based in my experience), a different amplifier won't increase the bass drastically (you might get better control of it, though). I would rather invest in a different pair of HPs. May l ask you what type of bass would you like to increase? Sub-bass, mid-bass? Have you tried to EQ it (with Foobar2000, for example)?

20 db at 2 feet ... short answer buy it. You will be fine. Wife is happy ..

The pac-audio website seems to imply the insertion loss is 1.3dB (the sentence is cut off, but I believe this is what they mean). That corresponds to a 13% loss in power (note: most dB values do not convert to % this easily), and much less than 13% in perceived volume. (The human perception of "loudness" is not linearly related to power)
