[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 6892481, member: 576029"] be more concerned with THD at the desired power output. Just because you have a 300Wx2 amplifier does not mean the speakers will ever actually see 300W. What is important is having more power than you need or will ever use - so that you operate with much lower amplifier distortion. Amplifiers make the most distortion at their rated power. Actual power output depends on the program material content at that instant, the gain setting, and the volume knob. The choice all depends on the amplifier. I'll take 50W of Zapco power over 200W of Kenwood power. [/QUOTE]
