[QUOTE="colonel66, post: 136537, member: 497"] Hi You keep good company as Fremer feels the same way. But I would like to remind you that speaker drive is more than watts but also the current ability. Also the sensitivity of speakers will have more of an impact. Ie a small increase in sensitivity will yield more than a larger percentage increase in power. Remember also that watts is a log measurement. So a 200w amp will NOT be double a 100w amp. The increase is more in the region of 30%. To double from 100w you need to get 1000w. This last point is lost on amp manufacturers - it is amazing how often a 200w amp is double the price of a 100w amp etc I fear that in your quest for power you will maybe get more what you seek at the expense of other parameters. Such is the danger of the upgrade - gain something and lose something else which you then try and address and then the circle perpetuates. [/QUOTE]
