Subject: a question on sensitivity...


Now I'm under the understanding that a measure of a speakeres sensitivity is measured as 1w/1m in a db number. Now I can do some rule of thumb math work to show what that speaker could hit at 128 watts of continuous power.

For example speaker sensitivity is 92db 1w/1m. @ 128 watts the SPL would be 113 or 114 db give or take. (Please correct me if I am wrong.) Now we get to my question. Is there any simple rule of them to measure two of the same driver with the same amount of power etc. I know 2 of the above described subs don't hit 226 db, but what kind of rule of thumb can I use to get a round about idea for multiple drivers?? Is there any??

Just wondering. Thanks in advance.
