[QUOTE="LiveAudio911, post: 6857750, member: 622999"] I know this thread is dead now but for ppl that look at this.. I stand slightly corrected.. -- The Sensitivity or Efficiency of a speaker tells how loud the speaker will play under standardized conditions. You will see a specification that may read "90dB SPL 1Watt @ 1meter". This means that when 1 Watt of power, usually a 1kHz tone, is fed to the speaker, the resulting output is 90 decibels measured at 1 meter from the speaker. The lower the dB rating, the more power needed to reproduce at the same volume as a speaker with a higher Sensitivity rating. --- [/QUOTE]
