[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8287539, member: 655960"] Your head unit amp has nothing to do with the power of an external amp and just as an FYI, no head unit produces more than ~18 watts per channel. Also, forget that max or peak power rating even exist. They are completely useless numbers used only for marketing. As for matching power with speakers, you can over power any speaker you have by ~25% safely, so long as you don't over drive the amplifier. And no, there won't be any noticeable difference between an 80 watt speaker and a 100 watt speaker. [/QUOTE]
