But you can't get anywhere near 20KW off a standard single phase supply. The UK 13A plug can provide a maximum of 3KW, so you could probably have a single 2.5KW output amplifier in the UK?. The 110V supply in the USA can't supply quite as much as that, so ampifiers are more limited in their outputs. | ||

Computer speakers are even more imaginatively specified than car speakers As a rough 'rule of thumb', divide car speaker specs by at least 10, and computer speakers by nearer 100. You'll be far closer to their real specs then :lol: | ||

| Hi Spuffock, There is nothing wrong with your meters. Just get stronger glasses so you can see the decimal point ahead of the 0.390W rating (very, very far into distortion) for your computer speakers. :lol: Hi Nigel, Here in my Canadian home, I can power a monster amp to break my own and my neighbours' windows. I would connect it to a stove, air-conditioner or electric clothes dryer receptacle. The amp would get 240VAC at 30A or 50A. If I connect the amp directly to my breaker box, I could provide it with 24KW and my electrical usage meter would spin so fast it might disintegrate along with the windows! :lol: In the USA it isn't as much because frequently their 120VAC sags to 110V. Hi Monkeytree, At a rock music (?) concert, they have a lot more than only two speakers, and a lot more than just one monster stereo amp. :mrgreen:

| Along the lines of blowing up speakers... http://www.realmofexcursion.com/vide...Shack/12.1.wmv There's a bunch of movies at that site, not all of them are of speaker destruction though. http://www.realmofexcursion.com/videos.html
