I think I've seen it written it is supposed to be 6db louder, but that doesn't make any sense to me. Think of them as resistors, now with 10 volts, each driver is seeing 1/4 of the power. So 4 drivers (8ohm drivers wired for a total load of 8ohms) to me would be the same db volume with the same voltage into 1 speaker.
Otherwise we could wire up a bazillion drivers in series/parallel and be 150db with say 8 volts rms going in (8volts into 8ohm = 1 amp = 8 watts).
Yes it would be cleaner, less cone movement for 4 drivers, but comb filtering isn't fun.
Am I right or wrong ??????
