They show an SPL rating that typically would be published as sensitivity, yet they call it efficiency.Sensitivity is typically measured at 1 kHz. I don't think it's a totally useless specification on subwoofers, but the math for roughly estimating if one speaker should be louder than another will not work with subwoofers. I assume that a subwoofer with a lower sensitivity rating has higher power handling with a stiffer suspension, but I'm typically going to spend a few minutes to model it in WinISD against at least one other subwoofer before committing to it.</blockquote>
