what is the speakers rated sensitivity?if it is 89 spl/1 watt then:
1 watt gives you an spl of 89
10 watts gives you an spl of 99
100 watts gives you an spl of 109each 10 db increase is a perceived doubling of spl
in other words - 99 is twice as loud as 89of course there is the 'distance' thing - speakers normally being measured at a distance of 1 meter - you lose db's as you move away from the speaker. If the speaker can really take it - you will probably be able to reach those 100+ db peaks without any problem
