Sometimes you'll come across people (or journalists) discussing loudspeakers, and they'll throw around terms like "sensitivity" and "efficiency", sometimes with some numbers and units flung in. But what does this actually mean, and how much does it practically matter?When people discuss the efficiency or sensitivity of a speaker, they're really trying to come up with a way to describe how loud it will go, for their amplifier. More technically, what they're really asking is how to reason about the relationship between acoustic power output and electrical power input.If we deliver the same amount of electrical power into a very sensitive speaker, that speaker will move a lot of air, and our ears will detect that air pressure change, and it will sound "loud". If we have a very inefficient speaker, the same amount of power applied will result in less air

Vinyl may be all the rage, but CDs continue to sell, and can be found at terrific prices, for those willing to look. Especially for classical music lovers, the catalogue is focussed mostly on compact disc, but with some audiophile recordings on SACD as well (read a blog all about SACD here!), we make sure we have all options covered with a wide range of brands on offer including Rega Research, Arcam and Primare.
