"Watts RMS" is better represented as "Watts average". Since 1000 watts is 1kw you have "1000 watts average" and you can derive "1Kw average". So 1000 watts RMS will consume 1 Kw
Total power output (Total RMS output): 1000 watts
Rms is watts that's the amount of watts a speaker is rated for.
My personal rule of thumb is that the amp should be at least 40% more powerful than the speaker(s) it's driving. So, if your sub is 1500W RMS, then mathematically, you'd need approximately a 2100W RMS amp. Some people just match it evenly - in that case you'd need a 1500W RMS amp. Whatever you do, DON'T use an amp less powerful than the speaker. If you do, you will probably kill the speaker in a short period of time. :(
There is really no wattage in "rms". RMS means only that the calculation goes P = V * I where you use V-RMS and I-RMS. In common use, the terms "RMS power" or "watts RMS" are erroneously used to describe average power.
40 VA is the apparent power of the load. It is simply the applied voltage multiplied by the resulting current in amperes. Given the VA and the Volts merely divide the VA by the volts to get I=VA/A = 40VA/24V= 1.667 Amperes rms. Andy B

RMS watts is not a real measurement. The correct measurement is "average power", which is measured in "watts". It is dervied from RMS voltage, but that doesn't make it "RMS watts". "RMS watts" would be 22% higher than the correct "average watts".
75 x 1 Watts RMS @ 4 Ohms 150 x 1 Watts RMS @ 2 Ohms
Find out what the rms is for that sub woofer,if it'1000 then find out what the max is,then you could go between the rms power and the max power to get the right amount of watts.
1 watt RMS equals to 100PMPO , accordingly 1000watt RMS equals to 10,000 PMPO. check out LG Home Theater HB954TB for the same.
1000 watts rms should be plenty

In a sense it would, say that 1000 watt amp was a mono channel. that would mean its 1000 watts RMS @ 1-0hm, 2 RF p3 4ohm would make it 500 watts to the two. if you want full power you need a 1200 watt amp @ 1-ohm, that would make it 600 watts to the 2 and that is the RMS of those subs. you can run more but running above RMS can blow or distort the subs.
