Low Frequency Sound from Bass type of Sound

Any source of sound in which the bass is measurably higher than the treble; the C-weighted sound level is more than 8 dB higher than the A-Weighted sound level.

Therefore dB-C sound measurement method should be used when enforcing the dB level that the City of London has set for night time entertainment.

62 dB-C = 70 dB-A
(An 8 dB's difference sounds two times louder when it comes to sound)

Low Frequency Sounds (Bass) are measured in dB-C scale.
High Frequency Sounds (Treble) are measured in dB-A scale.
