RE: "my limited experience is that the larger panels are not noticeably more efficient." ...

Magnepan rates the sensitity at ONE frequency. However, the amount of power needed from 40hz to 25hz (let's be optimistic here) is probably only 5% or so increase. You'd have to REALLY go some to convince me of 10% or greater.

That the panel size is LARGER means, perhaps, more air resistance? Also, the 20 series is double sided, which MAY mean greater sensitivity? apparently not, by Magnepan spec.
Too much is never enough
