[QUOTE="Boomin_tahoe, post: 8663704, member: 562180"] You can limit the amps rms capability when you set the gain properly. This is the most correct way of doing it and should be able to listen to your stereo all day all night w/o issues. Also don't worry about "max" power....that's the same thing as peak power. A few second "burst" of power that speaker can take before it's toast. RMS (Root Mean Squared) is the most important thing to look for. It's for continuously daily listening. Lastly, the square root of 100 is 10...would be the number on your DMM to tune the amp with, setting gain properly. [/QUOTE]
