I don't think that they are all the same. But with mine, -15db is a good loud level for long listening sessions. -10 to -5db is OK for short bursts but are too loud for hours of listening. -0db is too darn loud! By time I get to +10db it's way too loud for me, but still little to no distortion. I believe that +15 is max on my unit.
