Back in 2009 I built a pair of full-size Statement speakers:
A couple years ago, I built a set of the Statement Monitors for a friend.
Recently, he and I bought the same brand amplifier (an Emotiva XPA-2).
On the front of this amplifier are blue leds that are suppose to "dance" with the power output of the amp to the speakers.
His XPA-2 dances all over the place powering his Statement Monitors.
My XPA-2 *might* move one led when powering my full-size Statements.
I contacted tech support thinking there might be something wrong with my amplifier. They suggested that the efficiency of the two sets of speakers is different and that mine are more efficient than my friend's and thus do not register as much power requirements (and dancing of leds).
I searched all over and could not find an efficiency/sensitivity rating for any of the Statement speaker versions. Or, maybe I did, and I just don't know what I am looking at.
Does anybody know?
Thanks guys!
