How loud it can play really doesn't make any difference. By the numbers, my dual 12 inch woofer, 34 3.5 inch midranges, 60 dome tweeters running tri amped with 1300 watts can pump out 141 db.

But the key is not how loud, but its how incredibly detailed and almost intimate astounding the experience can be. With small groups its the closest thing to having these people actually in your listeing room playing just for you.... Most of the time I play it and can talk while listening.

I know this isn't the answer you wanted...
