Question concerning db sensitivity

Someone recently told me that in their experience, in general, that the higher the db sensitivity of a given speaker, the more you sacrifice in terms of sound. In other words, lower db rated speakers [ 86-88 ] typically sound better. Any thoughts on this?

Thanks.

As usual I agree with my friend John(Jmcgrogan2).I Think it is a question of quality and system synergy.I recently sold a pair of Revel F-30 speakers that sounded great with my large Plinius solid state amp.When I switched to Consonance tube amps I found the more sensitive Soliloquy 6.3i speakers to be a better match.Both pair of speakers are excellent when paired with the proper ancillary equipment.
