[QUOTE="Richard Stringer, post: 1671, member: 166"] Hi guys, i've got a question about voltage swing. Now, I know that to convert voltage to watts (to find out how much voltage is coming out the speaker terminals) you multiply the voltage by itself and then divide it by the speaker's impedance to give you a wattage figure, but I was looking at amplifier specs and saw voltage swing. I've been looking at the spec 'Maximum RMS Voltage Swing'. It states on the EV Q1212 amplifier that it's 90.6 volts. Now does that mean per channel or overall maximum from the amplifier regardless of speaker impedance? By the way, voltage swing is the maximum an amplifier can output before clipping right? [/QUOTE]
