What is louder? More cone area, more power, or more drivers?

[QUOTE="Papermaker85, post: 8552801, member: 572595"] you have to factor in mechanical resistance at the very least. its nearly impossible because you are missing key elements something as the Final Q of the alignment which is MUCH more important than 1w1m. For SPL you want a HUGE peak and typically you want that peak to occur around the resonance of the box and being able to use the largest port you can. to clarify a driver with 96db@1meter may be louder than a woofer rated 94DB 1w1m at 78 hz with 15kw before they smoke while said drivers with 94DB is louder @ 71HZ but can handle 22Kw. Im not picking i do like that info and it is accurate but they have far to many factors. for example you run into acoustical and mechanical resistance/inductance problems when you use to large a box/port etc etc. [/QUOTE]
