Just to explain what that difference means: 10dB difference is twice the level of noise. 4dB difference like we have in this case is a very noticeable difference (Audi in cabin noise level sucks probably because it's a diesel, I bet gasoline engine would be quieter)

That's all folks...

Sorry buddy 3dB is double the difference. So, the Audi is just over twice as loud.

69db = 2x amplitude wave than 66db. And so on.. sorry I'm a nerd.
