frequency response just indicates the range of frequencies a speaker
plays within a certain amount of loudness to one another. like for
instance many times they'll say 60-20,000 hz +/- 3db, meaning all the
frequencies within that range will be within 3 decibels of each other.
Most of the time it's a worthless stat.
Peak power handling is worthless (basically how much power the speaker
can handle for a very short amount of time, like.....2 seconds) , as is
sensitivity 99% of the time (how loud the speaker is with 1 watt at a
distance of 1 meter. But different companies can use different power,
different frequency, etc., to skew the number. so it's worthless).
the only number worth knowing in that is the RMS figure, which is how
much power the speaker can take continuously. But it doesn't mean that
a 50 watt speaker is better than a 25 watt speaker, you can't compare
them like that as it really has no effect on how a speaker performs.
When I buy a speaker I don't look at any of that except the RMS power
and impedence, which I use to match with an amplifier. Most everything
else doesn't help at all.
