more ampeg help, please?!

ok so if you read it or not i got an ampeg b-25 from the 60's. it gets distorted pass the 3rd notch (theres only 7 though) and it gets decently loud. but my old setup (vox pathfinder combo amp to a nemesis 120 watt 12" speaker) seems to be louder than my new ampeg with the 15" speaker cabinet i bought with it. is it louder farther away (like 20' away) like the guy that sold it to me said it was. or is my old combo set up really louder?
