[QUOTE="Vaughan, post: 60276, member: 693"] I'm not sure why people confuse efficiency for sensitivity since they are essentially two different terms. Two different measurements. Although I'll admit, I'm guilty of this myself. Well the drivers will move a fraction of the distance with the same amount of power to achieve the same SPL as (X) example. Total peak displacement should be higher since you have 5 woofers working in tandem. That's just a function of surface area x stroke. Most people I know will probably say 'power' and not 'r.m.s voltage' because it's just easier to remember. ;D [/QUOTE]
