[QUOTE="Geoff Doane, post: 99913, member: 1155"] Re: Suspect amp power ratings I think it goes back to the eighties, so perhaps before your time there. And I may not be remembering the acronym exactly right. IIRC, Peavey also printed maximum output voltage at the binding post outputs too (a CS800 said "40 Vrms"), and did the same on the speakers. It made a lot of sense to me, but I've got a formal electronics education, so I'm looking at this from a different POV than the typical consumer/DJ/musician/car audio guy. I've run into a couple DJs lately who are obsessed with "how many watts" the system I'm running (or they're running) has. Nobody ever asks, "Does it sound good?", or "Is it loud enough?".
