Relationship between power, frequency, and sound level

Propeller Head Plaza

Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

For a loudspeaker driver where the efficiency of the driver is equal for a specific frequency range, what is the relationship between the power required to achieve the same measured output (in dB) and increasing frequency?

Does it require the same amplifier power to achieve the same dB output as the frequency increases or does it require less (or more) power to produce the same dB output as the frequency increases?

The heavier the speaker driver the more work the amp has to do. Nt - geoffkait 08:53:53 04/08/22 (0)
