A 1db change in the amp's input will result in a 1db change in the
amp's output (or fairly close to it) if operating within its linear
range.
This isn't a very sensitive measure of overload in terms of harmonic
generation. If you do a Fourier analysis of, for example, a sine wave
with 0.5 dB peak clipping, you will see that the harmonic content is
already significant. I did have this documented somewhere, but I can't
find it at present.
