Is 68 DB quiet for a vent hood?

Am looking at a Modernaire hood -- was told that the 650 CFM motor (in the hood, not remote) is 68DB at high speed. Other sites say this is the noise level of "conversation." But what does that mean? It's considerably higher than the most quiet dishwashers that have DB in the 50's. So, is 68DB alright or should I look at remote? If you have a Modernaire of any kind, would appreciate having your input regarding noise level.
