RMS wattage on a speaker refers to the continuous power handling capacity that a speaker can sustain without distortion or damage. It indicates the average power level the speaker can handle over time, providing a more accurate measure of performance compared to peak wattage, which represents short bursts of power. Higher RMS wattage generally means the speaker can produce louder sounds and handle more demanding audio without compromising quality.

How do you match amplifier and speaker watts?
Short Answer: Try to get speakers with an RMS wattage rating roughly equal to the RMS wattage rating of the amplifier (per channel). Further Information: If you amplifier puts out 75 W RMS per channel, get a speaker that can handle 75 W RMS. If you get a speaker that handles 150 W RMS per channel, you will find that the amplifier doesn't have the power to make it sound as good as it could / should. Also, lower frequencies (where the amplifiers wattage rating is put to test) could burn out your amplifier. The opposite is also true. If the speaker can only handle 25 W RMS and you hook it up to a 100W RMS amp the amp might send so much current through the speaker coil that the coil wires heat up, burn off their coating and short together. This, in my opinion, is much less likely to happen though. NOTE: An amplifier doesn't put out its rated wattage all the time. The amount of wattage dissipated by the speaker varies directly and greatly with the music. A flute solo for instance being played with a huge 1000 W RMS amplifier might just put out 20 W RMS during the solo. But when the big organ kicks in jumps to over 900 W RMS.
How many watts are the speaker 4X6 ac delco?
The wattage of a 4x6 AC Delco speaker can vary, but a general range is around 25-50 watts RMS per speaker. It's recommended to check the specific model number or product specifications for the exact wattage rating.
How much watt amplifier should be used to run 800 rms subwoofers 2 ten inch 400rms each?
1600 watt amp. your power amp should 2x the rms value. To varify, check JBL's website and look in one of their speaker manuals, it will show you their speaker wattage and then show you the recommended power amp wattage.
What does rms mean I want to buy speakers but do not understand all the ratings?
RMS is the average power that the speaker will take
If a speaker is rated at 200 watts RMS at 8 ohms what is a good wattage to run to it?
it would depend on what brand and what size sub it is i would recommend 250 watts
How big of an amp do you need for to 17 inch subs?
for Two* 17 inch subs? Assuming this is what you mean, your question is still completely unanswerable. All you have to do when getting an amp is basically to match up the RMS Wattage on the Subwoofers to the RMS Wattage output on the amp. Impedance will factor into this as well.
When a pair of 6x9s speakers are rated at 200 watts rms is that into one speaker or both?
Each speaker is rated at 200 watts rms
If you have a 300 watt RMS and 1000Watt peak power sub-woofer what rating of an amplifier should one consider using?
an amp with 300 or less rms wattage output and 1000 or less peak wattage output.
Can you please explain wattage and how much I should look for when purchasing my speakers?
Wattage is the amount of sound a speaker can pump out. More wattage means the speaker will be louder, but won't necessarily sound better.
Effect that wattage will have on a speaker is defined as?
Wattage is the power applied to a speaker. More power usually means more volume. The sound pressure that a speaker will produce will be defined by the power applied, the resistance or impedance of the speaker (a lower impedance speaker will be louder) and the sensitivity of the speaker as a whole (the efficiency to turn the power into sound).
Do you need to buy an amp when purchasing speakers that have a higher amperage than the stereo?
I'm guessing your talking car audio, and you mean the speakers have a higher wattage rating than your stereo output. its a good idea not to underpower speakers too much. the sound will be distorted, and you could possible damage the speakers. there are two ratings of wattage for speakers and amps. RMS and Peak watts. always build your system using the RMS wattage. its is the real wattage. the peak is only usefull in the labratory its built in. RMS is is constant ability to put out, or receive that power all the time. The impedence (ohm value) of the speakers is important, it should be the same as the amp.
What are the stock stereo amp specs in the 1999 Saturn SL2?
