[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1068085, member: 555320"] Well, it [I]should[/I] tell you how loud a speaker will get with 1w @ 1m in infinite space (or a close approximation there to). However, a lot of companies like to test their speakers at 2w, or at .5m, or in a car....all of which will make the numbers completely meaningless and useless for comparison purposes. So, the number alone doesn't tell you a whole lot without knowing what methods they used to arrive at that number. Also, they can not be used to determine which will ultimately be louder overall.
