Assuming all the power went into sound power with no loss from the speaker itself wouldn't maximum sound pressure be the maximum levels that can be produced given our atmospheric pressure...can't remember the exact level but its something like 180db.
Maximum Theoretical Speaker Efficiency
This is a question for the tech-types.
What would be the theoretical maximum Sound Pressure Level that a speaker could produce from 1 watt of input power, assuming all of the power went into sound? In other words, at 100% conversion of electrical power to sound power. I just want to know how efficient typical speakers are.
