Default Questions on Levels

Someone will understand a 100W or 200W amplifier, but
won't think of one having 3 dB more (power) gain than the
other.


That would be their loss. If you compare amp power in dBs, and remember that
it takes about 10 dB to create the perception of "twice as loud", then a lot
of things in the real world that may seem mysterious become understandable.
