Also is the 125w RMS or peak?

Bro care to elaborate a bit between RMS and peak power. For example my RF52 is 100W RMS / 400W peak. What's the difference? Thanks.

I believe RMS is constant power, whereas peak power is instantaneous power (spikes). Thus most of the time it can handle up till 100W but it allows for maybe microseconds of very high power fed to it (high dB scenes).

I use to worry about this then but now my tube amp is only 15wpc and driving my 125w rms speaker without any problem but I usually never listen past 10 o'clock on the dial.

Basic rule is if you only listen at normal to moderate volume you dont have to worry about this stuff smile.gif
