AVGuyAndy said:Right, so by suggesting buying a 600w amp is bad advice.
Your suggestion wouldn't be bad in some circumstances. Ie if only one person ever had control of the amps, speakers and knew what they were doing it could work. So if the amp was never driven fully you might never damage the speakers. The over-rating of amplifiers just mean that in less controled situations eg multiple operators, people who didn't know, etc are less likely to be able to damage the speakers.
