Default Is This Loud Enough For You

Although this may be a bit hard to hear how loud I had these, It was loud enough to where if I'm not partially deaf now Riley Is……

note: I just had my windows tinted this morning and I only pushed everything back about 5 minutes before I did this video, I noticed it looks like the Elipsa's need to be toed out a little.

I can only agree. It's a speaker you're always amazed to look at no matter how long you've had them. It's a piece of art and I'm not even talking about the sound.

Is there any max spl rating on these speakers? I mean they all must have some point where they just reach a ceiling and it does matter if you put 5000watts through them they stop go louder at some point right?
They stop when you blow the speakers. The tweeter coil will melt from the heat generated and the bass will get damaged from the range of motion you are forcing on it. It can also hit the back of its case creating further damage.

Louder is quite a subjective notion. What I consider loud could be tame for you. I like to push the volume from time to time but I listen at moderate volume. So I would feel that a speaker is loud much earlier than you.

However, having witnessed how Ivan likes to push his speakers. When he says it's loud, it is loud.

Paul1 - if very loud is your primary concern then you are in the wrong neck of the woods. Go out and buy some speakers that use pro drivers, like jtrspeakers, and you can pump them at 115+ dbs... dont do it to a pair of Elipsas

Thanks Dan. I always liked your equipment in the twin40, so I picked one up a few months back. The system sounds pretty good to me too. The speakers just seem to get better everyday. I just moved it to another wall a couple of days ago to make the room look & feel a little more comfortable. I wasn't real crazy with my speakers getting hit with the sun in the afternoon either, so that also was a deciding factor to move things.
Thanks.

"What sonus faber range go loud "

- The Sonus Faber (Fenice) has almost no limit if they are driven with proper power.
