Yes, a 150 watt amp can run 140 watt speakers BUT, if you crank the amp all the way up, you will damage the speakers. Keep the amp down to a reasonable listening level and you will be fine. The math looks like you could set the volume control at 93% of maximum, but amps are not linear; I would not turn up over 66% of maximum volume. Post a note so your friends will not inadvertently ruin your speakers.
note: A reasonable level is below a level when you start to hear distortion.
What else can I help you with?
What capacitor do you need a 4000 watt amp and a 1600 watt amp?
To be completely honest, you may just want to buy a separate battery for your amps. I did competition stage 2 for about 2 years, and my capacitors always drained and blew. Your better off spending that money on a separate battery just for your speakers..-Shocker
How do you connect your speakers to your aftermarket amp in a jeep charokee amp?
The RCA's from the amp will be arn to the CD player, then you need to connect the speaker's wire to the output + and - of the amp, this will cause the amp to have musical power from your radio, and the speakers to have the power from the amp..-Shocker
Are kicker L7s good speakers and what kind of amp do I need to power 2-15 inch subs?
Yes, the L-7s are great. For the amp, you first need to find out whether the sub woofers are 2-ohm, 4-ohm, or 8-ohm. Depending on the answer to that question will determine whether or not you'll need a mono amp or a dual channel amp as well as the wattage.

Will using a 2 ohm 1200 watt amplifier be ok to use with three 4 ohm speakers 12 and 2-10?
If you connect three 4 ohm speakers in parallel, the amplifier would see a load of about 1.3 ohms. This definitely could damage the amp if you drive it too loud.
Can a 350 watt amp power 2 12s?
It depends on the power and impedance rating of the 12-inch speakers. If both speakers are rated for 175 watts and the amp can handle the impedance of the speakers, then the 350 watt amp should be able to power both speakers effectively.
Can a 250 watt amp push 1300 watt subs?
In most cases, the speakers should be able to handle more watts than the amp can deliver. Doing it the other way around will blow out the speakers.
Can 270 watt speakers damage a 125 watt amp?
Not unless the speakers are rated at a resistance (ohms) that is incompatible with the amp. Speakers don't generate power, the rating only tells you how much they can handle. So, speakers capable of up to 270 watts, can certainly handle 125 watts. However, if the amp is not 1-ohm stable and the speakers are 1-ohm, you could cause the amp to cut out and overheat depending on the protection mechanism of the amp.
Will 760 watt 2 channel amp power two 300 watt sub woofers?
Yes, but the amp is too powerful and if turned up to full volume will blow the speakers.

You are looking for speakers for DJing and you have a 600 Watt amp. What kind of speakers do you buy?
With 600 watts, you can't really go too big, and if you only have one amp, you can't go with separate mids/highs and a sub, so personally, I would try to find a pair of 200 watt speakers that have nice tweeters, mids, and lows, all in one. Don't go for anything over 200 watts each, because you want to leave room on your amp. You don't want to get two 300 watt speakers, because your amp will be working at full power, which isn't good for it or your new speakers. So all in all, a nice pair of 200 watt full range speakers is what I would be looking for.
Can you hook a 200 watt amplifier to a 120 watt sub woofer?
Yes it should be all right. Ratings for amp/speakers are approximate but as a rule it is preferable for the speaker to be rated higher than the amp.
What speaker match to 500 watts amp?
All car speakers will go well with a 500 Watt amp, but for the best effect, get a power subwoofer.
Will I get better sound and bass if I hook my Infinity Kappa Perfect speakers to a 100 watt amp?
You speakers will have a much more powerful depth in sound if you do that.
Can a twin 300 watt speaker destroy a 250 amp?
I am not a sound man but an electrician. But as I understand it, speakers only receive power. So if you connect 300 watt speakers to a 250 watt amp, you can only get 250 watts out of the speakers. If this understanding is correct, this could not blow your amp. I might say, however, that in most things electrical, they are not intended to be used at maximum output for very long. So if this understanding stays true with sound equipment, then running your 250 watt amp at maximum output in an attempt to get 300 watts out of it, this could shorten the life of your amp even though you never actually overload it.
Im worried that i might blow out my 500 watt amp because i have two 12 1000 watt subs and two more 10 subs then four other speakers in my car will i be all right?
