I don't know what they would claim in average for their speaker at 30-100 Hz (i.e. THD <10%) or below. They don't even tell size of the bass driver. I haven't listened to it either. Laws of physics must apply though. I'm highly sceptic about 101 dB SPL | 18Hz – 21kHz without support of the room.
Devialet claims 101dB for stereo playback on the Reactor 900s at 1m, which is pretty close to what my in-room measurements suggest. I think my measurements fall a bit under that, but there's some room for error in my very casual compression measurements and their interpretation.
The following was a quick and dirty measurement of two Reactor 900s done from my LP 3m/9-10 feet away (I didn't verify the exact distance at the time - I will have a better procedure for my compression tests in the future). Timing is a bit off between the two speakers, hence the especially wavy in-room response, but it should still give you a decent idea of the speaker's relative SPL capabilities.
The purple line is maximum volume in devialet's app. Also note I have a room null at about 17Hz, so I'm estimating from 25 Hz or so.
For reference here's my quasi-anechoic spin of them.
The bump below 100 Hz is not an artefact of the nearfield splice, but rather seems to be built into the response for some reason. It's why there's such a massive rise in this region in my in-room response. (Note, either don't keep these next to walls orbe sure to EQ the bass down).
So taking it all together bass seems to begin compressing below 60Hz at ~95dB for my listening position 3m away. If we subtract 6 dB for room gain and then add 9.5 for dB the difference in distance you get about 99.5dB at 1m. Round that up to 100 and I'd call that close enough.
No way to tell more specifically without actual anechoic compression measurements, of course, but I just present this rough data and calculation to make the point that it doesn't seem impossible they'd hit 101dB down to the 20s anechoically.
