[QUOTE="S1R-BLUNTZWORTH, post: 6290929, member: 614289"] Was browsing the web and stumbled upon this: "Here’s a baseline example for one speaker with a rated sensitivity of 83 dB (Model 83) when compared to another with a rated sensitivity of 92 dB (Model 92), and assuming both are measured at 1 watt/1 meter (the standard reference point for sensitivity published by reputable mfgs). The speaker’s impedance at this point is not a consideration. SPL-------Model 83-----Model 92 (dB)-------(watts)-------(watts) 83__________1__________ 86__________2__________ 89__________4__________ 92__________8___________1 95__________16__________2 98__________32__________4 101_________64__________8 104________128__________16 107________256__________32 110________512__________64 112________1024_________128 115________2048_________256" Original page :http://www.aperionaudio.com/community/forums/thread/6326.aspx Currently I'm running a t1500-1bd with 2 mtx 8500's that have sensitivity of 92.2 @ 1/w and it's suprisingly loud for just 1500 watts. I have a second t-1500-1bd amplifier coming in the mail and should be here in the next week, I'm gonna have to upgrade subs- Anyone have any input on some subs with good high sensitivity? What is your sub's sensitivity rated at eh? [/QUOTE]
