The sense of taste is logarithmic?? :-)))
You can express the relation between any two numbers in dB.
Yes, logarithmically.
It just means '1000 times more'. Since large ratios are
involved rather than small differences, it makes sense
to use dB.
As Flo has pointed out, you can use dB wherever ratios
are involved. Back in my Alcatel days I got emails from
my boss (a very fine engineer turned manager) like this:
'I've seen your planning for project xyz. You're going
over budget by more than 1 dB. I can allow 0.414, but
no more'.
(0.414 dB = +10%)
