[QUOTE="Bennett Prescott, post: 42292, member: 4"] Re: Small light PA tops with excellent sound quality George, When you base your understanding of SPL on loudspeaker spec sheets there is bound to be confusion. You make several assumptions, especially that peak SPL is 6dB more than continuous, that the loudspeakers in question even have the amp power to deliver the SPL they promise (and at what frequency?), and that the peak or continuous SPL numbers have ever actually been measured by the manufacturer. There are plenty of MI grade cabinets and pro grade cabinets with nearly identical specs, the difference is the pro grade cabinet won't make you cover your ears when you ask it to deliver what it says it will deliver. If you plan to use a loudspeaker at a certain SPL, best listen to it at that SPL first to make sure it will do it to your satisfaction. [/QUOTE]
