Sub sensitivity

What is a good sensitivity that I should I be looking for in a sub when my 4ch speakers have a sensitivity of 93 dB (at 2.83 V). Should I be looking for similar specs or is it a completely different equation? I do see different sensitivities at different voltages and do not know how to compare them . . .
 
Sensitivity is usually measured 1watt 1 meter. I'd go by that.
Higher the better on subs too. Less power to get louder. Every 3 DB gain is like doubling your amplifier power.

thanks DB, that definitely helps swallowing a $300 price tag 😂 these would essentially be running midbass for me too

What is your budget? With being exposed to Rain.. I would recommend looking at a marine grade SAS Bazooka for the sub stage

One or two, they are still subwoofer outs and are mono summed signals from both left and right. Even the 2 RCA subwoofer pre-outs on the 2nd one...

Be sure to see the sub specs. It should tell you the ideal sealed enclosure size.
