subwoofer parameters

Any speaker gets loud, if you want high fidelity sound then a
speaker
with
a
lower dB/W will usually be the better sounding one, all other
factors
being
equal,
Explain.
SQ and volume are not the same, more SPL/W will usually indicate that
the
freq response for the driver is not 'flat'.
a) this isn't always true; b) "flat" is not necessarily the same thing as
"sounding good".
obviously you do not beleive me and I don't give a hoot, but you may
believe
JL, they have or certainley used to have a good explanation as to
why
on
their website.
This newsgroup frequently requires that people who make assertions
back
them
up with evidence if anyone is to believe what they say. I wouldn't
expect
anyone to believe what I say if I don't provide evidence, nor should
they.
Well, we've already proven several things on that JL tutorial site wrong,
so
it's already lost a great deal of credibility. But I'm willing to judge
it
by its merits. What article were you referring to?
IIRC http://www.jlaudio.com/tutorials/index.html
There was a long article about speaker sensitivity and box sizes.
Question how come the better quality subs have lower spl/w than the
el
cheapo versions, ie JL, Infinity ZR- Apline, DLS, Kicker vs Pine
lower
cost
Kenwood Pioneer, Jet Sound etc....
This isn't always true. I can think of several that don't.
Please do tell.
