RMS calculus
So,
In a previous thread I posted about a 'loudness' dilemma front and rear.
My fronts are 40W RMS.
My rears are 50W RMS.
So, if I were to upgrade to 60W RMS front, would that make the fronts louder (at the same 'volume knob' level and fade level)? Or would it make the rears louder since they have the lower RMS?
Meaning, if I get the 60W RMS, should I put them in front, or back. (Since, again, the 50W is in back, and the 40W in front).
In otherwords, does RMS make for the louder speaker, or the design?

P.S. The 50W and 60W RMS speakers are Blaupunkt (2 way, and components respectively). The 40W is a panasonic component set. As stated in the other thread I'm trying to balance speaker power without going the amp route. The volume knob just does loudness, not bass, treble balance - which in my case is off.
