    Ok Im looking for a nice sub to put in my vert (possibly spare tire location). I am looking at crutchfied to see whats out there (new) and I see a sensitivity rating on speakers.... if anyone could clarify what it means and what would be good I would apprecite it.

    Thanx,
    Pookie

    Here's a link that might help: http://www.the12volt.com/glossary/glossary.asp?l=S
    Basically means that a speaker with a higher sensitivity rating will get louder than one with a lower rating with the same amount of power. When you're looking for subs though, don't use it as a deciding factor.
