The second woofer will have ~4 dB MORE output at 40 Hz with a 6 dB lower sensitivity due to more low-end extension. Just a rough example... but you get the picture.Moral of the story -- high sensitivity subs tend to have less low-end extension, especially sealed. As audioholic stated... sensitivity is typically measured well outside of the pass band of subwoofers.</blockquote>
