RE: how do they get 60W from 12V? One last thing that seems to have been ignored is to specify the power rating at 4 ohms or lower. Remember P = E^2 * R. Many folks make the *mistake* of thinking that all power ratings are at 8 ohms. Ha! Ah, yes, anyone remember the old days of peak music power, +/- 1 db?

RE: how do they get 60W from 12V? Ok...ok...I blew it....so before someone in netland flames on me.... everyone knows that P = E^2/R not E^2 * R. Silly, I must have wildcards on the brain. Rick Chinn @ Fluke

Huh, I think you mean P = E^2 / R (or V^2 / R) -- which is consistent with what you said in the rest of the article. -- Skip Addison {allegra,rlgvax,emory}!gatech!skip
