What do volume numbers mean on the audio settings?

597 views

Like, my speakers go from 0 – 100. But 0-100 whats? Decibels? Or is this like a percentage of the speaker’s maximum volume? But it can’t be that because even if I turn it to 100, I can still turn the youtube slider up and make it play even louder. So what are these units?

Also, what determines the maximum? Can I just push it beyond that using some sort of coding thing?

It will just be a percentage of maximum volume allowed by the driver, you can drive speakers at higher than that volume but it might cause damage to them.
