ANSI/ASA S1.13-2020 Measuring Sound Pressure Levels in Air Loudness is a subjective measure, but sound pressure levels are not. These objective measures are measured through ANSI/ASA S1.13-2020.

🚨 ASA/ANSI S1.13 was reaffirmed in June 2025, with no changes needed to the 2020 revision.

ASA Standards has been shaping how we measure and manage sound since 1931—from noise and vibration to hearing protection and marine acoustics.

If it involves sound, we probably wrote the standard.
