Sensitivty numbers for a woofer are the most meaningless spec in the industry because they can be varied by the manufacturer with enclosure type and size.

Actually they're not meaningly, but like you said, when comparing to other brands they are indeed meaningless.

Still though, you CAN find HIGH efficiency subwoofers. I personally like the Cerwin Vega VMax line.

Blowntweeters, you really should look at the Clarion 32" woofer. I bet you could get a couple of them in a trunk. hahahaha!

Keep in mind that the higher efficiency will come at a cost. You will either need a really large enclosure, or have to give up low frequency extention.
