[QUOTE="robbythedude, post: 8504006, member: 661682"] Hey, I'm having problems wrapping my head around the power output of my audio interface. Long story short, I was thinking bout making my own shelf speakers and hooking them to my interface. I'm not really looking for quality, but instead really loud shelf speakers. Interface: [URL="https://us.focusrite.com/usb-audio-interfaces/scarlett-2i2/specifications"]Scarlett 2i2[/URL] Speakers: [URL="http://www.soundqubed.com/QC-HF65_p_144.html"]SQ QC-HF6.5[/URL] According to SQ, that cross over is 4Ohm rated. My interface outputs 30mW at 50Ohm rating and 15mW at 150Ohm.That output isn't proportional... So I'm just super confused now lol What would be the possible output from my interface? And is there a chance the interface will catch fire at the low 4Ohm rating? Idk, I'm really confused about this whole project and trying to find my bearing. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
