10s low watts small space

this is what i found on numbers
ID V3:

Fs (Hz): 22.70HZ

Xmax (milimetters): 17.0MM

Sensitivity: 85.6 dB

187:

Fs: 33.9 Hz

Spl: 90.5 db 1w/1m

X-max: 13.2 mm peak to peak

In terms of linear displacement, the IDv3 slaughters the 187. Which means that in a daily install, it should be louder over the entire bandwidth

 
even though the 187s have more sensitivity? But then again companies always use different methods of measuring that. So basically the ID V3s would be louder than the 187s? What about IDV3s and the RLIs? Im not sure on what the xmax is on the RLIs but I know they handle more watts. Like 350. 100 more watts than the IDs. What u think squeak.

 
yea I know the RLI 8s have like 18mm xmax but are smaller and the guy told me that the 10s would have more output. But are u sure the 187s would not be as loud as the RLIs or IDs? Cuz i the numbers dont look so bad. FS of 33 and sens of 90?

 
LIs are supposed to be really loud too but they dont have much excursion...and i start thinking about the stroker...

mind you i understand that youre talking about daily overall output. i guess xmax isnt that important for burps?

so ur saying that subs with less xmax need more watts and are louder during burps only? And the more xmax more efficient?

 
now put refrences to what the letters mean in there jmac. i dont know wtf Vd1 is. prolly the displacement or somthing.

and i also dont know any log shit //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

sides takin a dump, or maybe cutting down a tree.

Sensitivity has nothing to do with how loud a speaker can get.

The IDv3's would pretty much kill the 187's, considering they would have ~3x the amount of linear excursion.

IDv3's vs. Rl-i's is a pretty close matchup. Both are excellent sounding drivers with comparable amounts of displacement.
