We'll have to check the normalization of the two codes.
I think we all define a db value for silence in the same way: the
energy of a sine wave with the smallest possible amplitude that a CD
can handle. But this value will depends on the normalization of the
MDCT, and we can only compare the two codes if they use the same
normalization.
