[QUOTE="Tim McCulloch, post: 82188, member: 67"] Re: JBL SRX / QSC PL236 underpowered? Two things to address, both based on the first part of the quote. First, an amplifier with a larger current reserve will not inherently raise the noise floor of the system simply because it has more available current. VOLTAGE GAIN will raise the level of whatever is presented to the input of the amp. There is no "1/4 power." The amplifier is still capable of the same amount of output voltage and current. One can attenuate the input sensitivity, thereby requiring a bigger input signal to drive the amp to full output. The plus to this a reduction in the quiescent noise from devices upstream to the amp.
