[QUOTE="Gordon Brinton, post: 141238, member: 9814"] Re: Calculating Consumption in Watts, Total System Draw I found each spec in the respective manuals. (See links below) The manuals for the amps actually said "1/8 power" which I understand to be at the point of clipping. Of course I understand that it is variable and subjective. I only run live bands and corporate stuff, not DJ music. I rarely push my system levels hard because I have sensitive hearing and assume that others do too. I consider 1/8 power to be a good reference point for judging where I stand as far as current draw. I just wanted to get a general idea of how many circuits I should seek out when I advance a venue or at setup time. The DSR's are self powered. The remaining monitor amps are all operated at 8 ohms in stereo mode.
