How many watts is your Amplifier @8ohms

[OnTheBlitz]

Ok, why?

I Tried to be funny, but failed miserably.
You have a lot of amps.

 

[Mister Pig]

Can't vote. Mine is 8 wpc. This pole is prejudiced against us SET owners!

I thought you wanted me to have a bakers dozen...

Well yeah and pigs...

Round up, 8 is close to 10, pick 10

See, now that's funny !

 

[avionic]

So you need 51 watts to have the transient peaks covered?

I guess ??
Anyone know what a bridged M400 Cube is capable of into 8Ω load ?

 

[xero-D-hero]

Well,let's see:
Adcom GFA-535 MkI = 60wpc > 8ohms.
Adcom GFA-545 MkI = 100wpc > 8ohms.
Adcom GFA-555 MkI = 200wpc > 8ohms.
Adcom GFA-5200 = 50wpc > 8ohms.
Adcom GFA-5300 = 80wpc > 8ohms.
Adcom GFA-5400 = 125wpc > 8ohms.
AudioSource Amp Two = 80wpc > 8ohms.
EV 7100 = 75wpc > 8ohms.
JVC RX-318bk = 110wpc > 8ohms.
Kenwood KA-7300 = 65wpc > 8ohms.
NAD 3140 = 40wpc > 8ohms.
NAD 2600 = 150wpc > 8ohms.
Onkyo M-5100 = 110wpc > 8ohms.
Sansui AU-217 = 30wpc > 8ohms.
Teac A-1D = 50wpc > 8ohms.

Total = 1325wpc ~ Average = 88.3

Does not account for the fact that a couple of those amps could be bridged (and paired w/another) for significantly increased wpc.

FWIW

5.8 watts, rounds up to 10 I guess.

If the transient peaks are at 100dB, I've got 'em covered. At 1 meter away anyhow.

They says it 200 wpc @8ohms.

 

[unfairlane]

Max watts is much like top speed, it says nothing about axelration, torque or sound quality.

The focus on frequense response is another misunderstanding btw, same arguments

 

[harman/kardon]

1979 Dual "CV1700", 80wpc, 8 ohms.

1961 Bang&Olufsen "Amplifier 608", 15 wpc, 4 ohms. (sorry for listing...)

 

[Dr. Morbius]

In 2 channel operation:
Crown XLS 1500 300 watts @ 8 ohms
Crown XLS 2000 375 watts @ 8
Crown XLS 2500 440 watts @ 8
Acurus A150 150 watts @ 8
Acurus A250 250 watts @ 8
Denon AVR-5700 140 watts @ 8

 

[Satch]

Power ratings... Oh well.
My Threshold S/300 is claimed to deliver 150 Watts/channel/8 Ohms
My JVC A-X900 should deliver 120 Watts/channel/8 Ohms
My Sony STR-DE135 receivers delivers 100 Watts/channel/8 Ohms

For some reason I feel one of the manufacturers here is very modest and another one might exaggerate a little bit You decide who's who

 

[lizard84]

600 watts per channel @ 8 ohms .5hz - 70hz - Gain 32db - .003% THD - .0008% IMD - .002% TIM - 120db Dynamic range - Damping factor 1000

 

[Poultrygeist]

3.5 SET watts - but thankfully a fraction of that all important "first watt" gives a good listening level with the Lowthers.

The goal for me is to hear all that's happening in that first watt but you've got to reach a listening level with it to do so.

 

[whoaru99]

Most, 725wpc @ 8 ohms
Least, ~12wpc @ 8 ohms

Several between.

 

[whoaru99]

3.5 SET watts -

You're sandbagging. I know you have those TPA amps that are at least 10wpc, or more depending on supply voltage.

 

[Hyperion]

Most = 200 wpc
Least = 85 wpc

(85, 100, 100, 140, 160, 200)

 

[Hyfi]

Odyssey Stratos Plus = 150wpc @8ohm (260 @4ohm)
Counterpoint NPS-400 = 200 wpc @8ohm (400 @4ohm)

But most of my speakers are 4 or 6 ohm so using a little more at times
