A:Answer The perception of how loud or how quiet something is is very subjective. What you may consider to be loud someone else may not find to be as loud. The sound level of electronic devices is measured in decibels (dB) and the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG - Studio 23.5 Cu. Ft. Door-in-Door Counter- Depth French Door Refrigerator - Stainless Steel, Model # LSFXC2476S features LG's LoDecibel™ Quiet Operation which is rated at 44 dBA ~48 dBA.(the "A" is the decibel scale that mimics the human ear). By comparison, Normal Conversation at a distance of 3 feet away is rated at 60 dBA. On the decibel scale, a gain of 10 dB is perceived as a doubling of sound intensity and 20 dB as being four times as loud...^IFV
