The Eminence sensitivity guide should be showing the real 1w/1m levels of the driver. The graph must be showing something else, maybe 2.83v or something. I'd trust the sensitivity guides numbers, which are the real numbers.

n0=(9.64*10^-10*(Fs_a^3*Vas_a))/Qes_a
=(9.64*10^-10*(118^3*5.8))/0.60
=0.0153

SPL 1w/1m= 112+10*LOG(n0)
= 112+10*LOG(0.0153)
= 93.85db 1w/1m

Reference efficiency converted to 1w/1m sensitivity, it corresponds to Eminences sensitivity guide, but not the graph. The graph must be measured under different conditions.
