[QUOTE="Mike Caldwell, post: 208139, member: 170"] Keep in mind in the real world those amps do not put out the power that their published ratings say they do. Actually that may be good thing for you, if they did your speakers would most likely be blown at this point. Your pushing the amps into clipping in trying to get the sound level you want in the room, my guess is the amps are going into a protection mode and shutting down or muting. Maybe the amps don't like the reactive type of load that the speakers are presenting to the amp, the impedance of a speaker changes with frequency, it does not stay at the 16 ohms the 2X5 speakers are rated.
