Low sensitivity is not bad per se.
Optimal internal volume, sensitivity and F-3 are linked, and a low sensitivity gives you lower F-3 for a given enclosure.
The Scan Speak do require an hefty amplifier.
My point is that these Scan Speak sound exceptional, better than most Seas, Focal, Morel,..... drivers. They are also very well made, and their frequency responce and inductance are really exceptional.
