Alright, I'll clarify.
I almost always use my cell phone to play subliminals. I therefore do my testing and experiments that way. I use FrequenSee to measure the volume. The volume is being measured through the onboard microphone and produced by the onboard speakers. This arrangement is not perfect, because the distance between microphone and speakers varies from cell phone to cell phone, but it's the closest I have to a constant.
There seem to be three major options for volume adjustment in cell phones:
1. 15 clicks. This is most Android phones.
2. 30 clicks. This seems to be Google phones.
3. 16 clicks. This is Apple phones.
My phone has 15 clicks. So I measure in a ratio of ? to 15 clicks.
If you're not playing it from a cell phone, I can see how that would become confusing, so let's do dB, as you suggested.
People appear to fall into two main camps. Those who can handle higher volume ultrasonic, and those who can't (or won't).
Those who handle higher volume ultrasonic well usually respond best at a volume from 12 to 15 out of 15 on a cell phone, with 13/15 being the optimal peak for the majority. Let's call this group Type 1.
Those who do not respond well to high volume ultrasonic usually respond best to volumes of 6 to 12/15. Usually, there are peaks for success at 7, 9 and 10/15 with this range. 9 seems to be the highest peak, followed by 7. We'll call this group Type 2.
People who need under that tend, in my best understanding, to be suffering from Type 20 resistance. They are often subconsciously trying to cause themselves issues, typically with hearing, that force conditions for usage that cannot achieve the goal results. In this case, they make themselves too sensitive to volumes of the program that can achieve the goal, and "can't tolerate it". The result is that using it in the ways that will achieve the goal never happens, and they never get results. I frequently see those in this group trying to use the Masked format only, and then playing it at ridiculously low volumes, and sometimes across the room. This group we will call Type 3.
The volumes for each setting, in decibels below zero, with zero being the loudest possible volume, are as follow, according to my phone, and are accurate to +/- dB:
06/15: -35
07/17: -32
08/15: -26
09/15: -22
10/15: -18
11/15: -16
12/15: -14
13/15: -12
14/15: -11
15/15: -10
Remember, this is volume at the source of the audio, not at the ear. You will have to translate for other phones.
EDIT: These values may not be stable from phone to phone based on positioning of the microphone relative to the speaker. Don't take this as set in stone.
