[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8840933, member: 674149"] PMPO is more commonly just known as Peak. Peak is nonsense. Peak is if you didn't care about the quality of the sound in any way, and only wanted to play that music for a second, then you would be concerned about peak. RMS and ohms are all you need to match up. The same ohms, and RMS the same or slightly larger on the amp, are all anyone really needs to know to put together a system. RMS means root mean square, and it's how they get to that number, (you don't need to understand how, just use the number). To compare it to something, it's like learning a vehicle's tire size, rear end gearing, transmission gears, throttle percentage, air inlet cfm, exhaust, tire type, aerodynamics, etc.. and all you really want to know is what's the MPG. Speakers and amps are rated in channels. Each speaker is on one channel, unless were talking about subs or components. A set of (those infinity) speakers is two channels. A 4ch amp, is generally two sets. Components are generally one set, but some can be wired individually. Subs have the most combinations, because they are MONO, and you don't care about playing them in stereo / Left to right / like you would need at least 2 channels for. They can be their own channel depending on the amp, or channels can be combined. [/QUOTE]
