Re: 60 Degree DIY Mid HiThe AES measurement we are talking about uses a peak-to-rms voltage ratio of 2:1, limiting the 12 dB crest factor pink noise to a 6 dB crest factor.Back in the "olden days" (pre-1984), the "RMS watts" used to test speakers were sine waves (same as used for rating amplifiers) which have a crest factor of 3 dB.I'm so old that if there is not a reference to AES I still assume a sine wave for "RMS" watts...
