I just bought a couple of loudspeakers and not too sure how many watts to power them up with. Here are the specs from the manufacturer:
I've been thinking of getting a 2000 Watt amp, but would that over-power the speakers? I need them to be loud because they'll be used for live events. I want to get a behringer EP-4000, but it has a power rating of 1400 watts at 4 ohms. But at 1400 watts, is that too much power since the peak power is at 900 watts? Should I get the EP2000 instead rated at 500-watts at 4 ohms?
My only problem with the EP2000 is that it might be enough since the recommendation is to double the continuous power rating of 225W = 550W
A 300 watt power amplifier is more than enough to power the speaker you have. Most power amplifier can handle a bit more than they are rated for. Don't make your choice on just numbers, listen to the system to make sure it is clear sound you are producing. Hope this will help you out.
