I don't see it like that. Performance at higher frequencies is usually even more important, and there the f113 is a good 6 dB better than the SVS cylinder. There is also a quite considerable size difference.

And these CEA-2010 numbers do not definitely tell the whole story. They offer a quick reference but more detailed measurements and results are still needed.
Heh, I know that. But many round here wouldn't consider a subwoofer worthy of the name unless it had strong output in the 20-31.5Hz range, preferably rather lower. If we were comparing two manufacturer's quoted specs for the CEA-2010 standard consisting of just the two output numbers for low-bass and ultra-low-bass then one might come to a questionable conclusion. As you say, the CEA-2010 numbers only tell you part of the story.
