hmmmm...that wasn't meant to come out as wattage per person...give a room with a bar...dance floor...and fifty people average, and you have an area of approx. 4000sq ft. you have the potential to blow some eardrums out with the right pitch and volume. Most bar bands use amps with more potential than needed. This gives you an amp which could be used on an outdoor gig. We recently played for roughly 1400 people surrounding and an additional 2200 people wandering in our sandy beach park. No one had more than 60 watt amps, but we were performing in a 17 acre park. The music was audible nearly anywhere in the park. So, you see...there is alot of potential for a mid wattage amp.
