So the amplifier sends a line level voltage and a tiny bit of current to the speaker and the voltage amplifies the current in the speaker. Something like that.

No amp "outputs" 100watts or it would blow up every component in the signal chain. That is a flat out lie. The amp outputs line levels and the speakers are powering the acoustic output.

What are your thoughts?


Wayne P, this is stuff that a mere MBA can't unserstand, but which EE's delight in. What are your thoughts?
