120dB SPL1Maker product pagelogitechg.com/en-us/shop/p/yeti-nano-usb-microphoneRead 15 October 2026Specifications: Max SPL 120 dB (THD: 0.5% 1 kHz). The older quick start guide (rev D) prints 110 dB with no distortion level, so the two maker documents differ. The current store page and the current support specification agree on 120 dB, which is stored.2Maker product pagesupport.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/14162305169687-Specifications-Yeti-NanoRead 15 October 2026Max SPL: 120dB (THD: 0.5% 1kHz). No gain setting is given. Sensitivity is printed as 4.5mV/Pa (1 kHz), a value in mV/Pa that is not stored. The quick start guide prints -37 dB for 0 dB = 1 V/Pa instead, and it names no USB output, so no sensitivity is stored.
