Regarding the PDF the CP12 are able to provide 126 dB. A short googling mentions that pain threshold is around 110 dB, just jets and the idiot's rock disco reach around 120 dB. Permanent hearing damage requires around 90 dB lasting noise. For such a "mini big band" I would test those CP12 or similar. I don't think you need to compare them with speakers that provide more Watt. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
