Driver efficiency vs. overall speaker efficiency

If a speaker uses a driver that has an efficiency of, let's say 87.5db/2.83V/m, then theoretically the speaker can never have an efficiency of greater than 97.5db?

And has nothing to do with the quality of sound reproduced? I'm learning here... ;-)
