[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1015713, member: 176704"] Ignore those Wattage "ratings" - "someone" (in fact almost every supplier of very low tech "audio equipment") quoted Peak Power ratings for the [I]whole system [/I]whereas all the decent audio equipment suppliers use RMS power ratings for [I]each speaker[/I]- and there is a VERY big difference in the numbers. In reality, most decent small PC speakers are probably rated around 10 ( probably only 5)-20W RMS each - so connect a "proper" highish power (say 60-100W RMS per channel)l and "turn the wick right up" on a high input level, and you'll probably have a job catching the speaker cones before they hit the opposite wall, having been blown right out the boxes :D Edited: the latter assumes that you connect them to some form of relatively "hifi" audio power amp, whereas, in reality, the input levels to those speakers will almost certainly come from the (very) voltage-limited audio output of a PC motherboard or dedicated audio card - so don't "worry", but still don't get "mislead" by the Peak Power wattage "numbers game".
