In my living room they rarely get more than a watt to fight over. When we go out to play, the "little" 200+ w/ch Crown will go right up to clipping and the sound is clear and articulate (and very loud). I find that even in a pretty large room full of drunken revelers the system strains only on the lowest synth bass and then only if it's too loud anyway.

My speakers are basically Theater 4 Eminence guts in a Karlson enclosure with Delta Pro drivers and the PSD2002s on mystery horns that I thought were CH3 knockoffs, but now that I've seen real ones (thanks Bill) I've got no clue. The DJ friend who's trying to ruin me is getting seriously spoiled by them.

So beware and stick with miniwatt amps or you'll be driven right out of the house and into places where people drink and dance and carry on. I think it happened to Wayne years ago and he's had to go to Doc Bottlehead for help.
