I'll be blunt. It is clear your priority is sensitivity and maximum output, so, I suggest getting a set of PA speakers. They are outrageously sensitive (typically well over 100dB) and have almost limitless maximum output. Look at partsexpress.com for numerous options. Your old Altecs were really just borderline PA speakers in less industrial cabinets. You'll be in hog heaven.
