Help with power ratings?

[63mopar 10+ year member]

Can anyone help me out. I am looking at getting a two channel amp for my Diamond Hex comp set. I am currently using a PPI DCX 1000.4 which is 125 rms per side. I want to go to a two channel because the 4 ch is huge and I don't use my rear stage. The amp I am looking at is this one

My question is this. On the PPI website the power rating for this amp is 125 per channel "CEA Power". does this mean 125 rms per channel or not. The price I found this amp for is too good to pass up. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Oh the specs for the amp are located here on page 10,

Yes, it means 125w RMS per channel into 4ohms at 14.4V

All that "CEA Power" means is that the output was measured in accordance with the CEA-2006 voluntary measurement standard.

Thanks Squeak I appreciate all the help. Like I said I just can't pass up this deal. I was going to buy an audison LrX but I am not ready to shell out that kind of money yet.
