There is more to it...

----so when the impedance dips
it is drawing more power and so it is
less efficient than another speaker of
the same sensitivity with flat impedance

This makes a few assumptions...such as IFF this impedance dip happens and no more SPL is produced. In any case, since tube amps typically have higher output Z than SS ones, and SET w/o nfb usually top this list a change in the load does not work well. That is not what I am worrying about...couldn't care less actually; it is a red herring.

I've still not seen the description from RGA as to the difference between sensitivity and efficiency. When he delivers that( if he ever does) the discussion will continue.
cheers,

Friend, I would not hurt thee for the world...but thou art standing where I am about to shoot.
