[QUOTE="Water Bear, post: 8820453, member: 673826"] Impedance Z is resistance plus reactance and depends on signal frequency. Ohm's law for Impedance is V = I |Z|. Know the impedance and the voltage and you don't need to measure the current - you know it. I get what you're saying, though. The simple RLC model is probably not totally accurate and measuring V and I to get P is the only "true" way to do it. An amp is definitely not going to "make full power at 0.2V". Turn your amp gain to max and tell me if it's outputting more voltage at volume 2 than at volume 1. I can max the gain on my SFB-5k and it won't clip until HU volume 45/60. So. What do you [USER=587645]@mat3833[/USER] and [USER=581422]@metalheadjoe[/USER] actually suggest that @OP do to solve his problem? [/QUOTE]
