laney loudness

[anth]

I have a laney tf500m 120 watt 1x12 (h&h invader speaker) combo. I feel like its not that loud for 120 watts (close to maxing out volume controls for band rehearsal) and im assuming this is because of the speaker. Do I need two 60w speakers to make use of the 120 watts? it has a speaker extension out. sorry im kinda new at this stuff.

Most of the time a transistor amp rated to 120 watts wich has an extension capability does not exhibits 120 watts from a single HP, but only with the extension added (so without you can expect 80-90 watts max)
Second : the HP is the most important thing when it comes to "loudness"
