[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8287545, member: 650438"] No RMS rating does not determine speaker quality It just determines how much power it can handle. [B]The things you need to look for is the speaker's overall design.[/B] not power ratings, thats almost as useless as Max/Peak power ratings on amps. Whats the speaker cone made out of? How does the basket look? cheap steamped baskets or strong sturdy cast iron/steel/aluminium baskets? Whats the frequency response? if you want bass, you'll need a speaker that can play lower notes. How loud the speaker gets is determined by its efficiency rating which is the sensitivity measured in DBs. Before buying any speaker, you'll need to try it out or talk with people who have properly used and installed that exact model of speakers before and they can let you know if the speakers will actually hit hard or not. Many of the junk brands will list outrageous specs with big numbers, dont get fooled, most are garbabe, check with us with the model number before buying it. [/QUOTE]
