Does anyone know what wattage a Dragster DW 124 sub is?
Thanks Dave |

Aw, don't mind him he's just fishing for a fight. He's all in a huff because there is no such thing as Watts RMS, even though it's (mis)used all over the place. Whenever you think to write Watts RMS, just replace the "RMS" with "average sine-wave power" and you'll probably not set off the local land-mines. ;-) |

hmm, sorry for the crosspost.

And by the way Tony, "average sine-wave power" is also meaningless. It's *average power*, depending on the failure mechanism "average" may be over a wildly different time scale. Of course there are other failure mechanisms than power. -- Keith |

Of course there are other failure mechanisms than power. I don't think "average sine-wave power" is meaningless, especially if it was qualified with some specific frequency, say 400Hz or 1kHz. Since we're splitting hairs and all, I think it's more meaningful than just saying 200W by itself. I mean if it's a 200W speaker, can I put 50V DC at 4A into it safely? How about 1kV at 200mA? ;-) Why specifically wouldn't it be correct to say "Watts RMS" if that's the type of V they multiplied by A to come up with W? Should it be assumed that Vrms is always used when calculating AC power and Watts RMS is redundant? It just seems to me that Watts RMS actually could stand for something specific. Should the audio world just measure it as PEP? ;-) |

RMS or Root Mean Square, as for putting dc through a speaker it WILL fry the
coil as a speaker is only designed to take AC, to find the peak wattage of the speaker divide the RMS by 0.707 "Anthony Fremont" wrote in message ... "Keith R. Williams" wrote in message . ..
