Well, I used to think size was the indicator of quality, but that has not been the case in a long time since they've been able to make smaller speakers with much bigger outputs than they used to.
It is all about the power output of the drivers, really.
I really don't know what you are asking. 120db @ 2 meters is how loud a sound system should be as far as i'm concerned, for home listening. I couldn't tell you what wattage would be necessary to get that.
As far as the physical size of a speaker I say the bigger the better. Get something that outputs the power you want and has the f bandwidth that is required. An 8" speaker might do it or a 16" one might do it it all depends on the size of the magnet.
