michael_d, had some good points, the power supply is the center of everything for an amp, the picture that i posted for the krell is an amp that is stable down to 2ohms, producing 2000W@ 2 ohms..... i believe that amp weighs about 150lbs, and that is a single channel amp.


free, it would depend on what the other 5 channels are doing, if your watching a movie, and 70% of the audio is coming from the Center channel, then that speaker is going to be using most of the energy. with the surrounds doing almost nothing, as well as the L/R...

if you are listening to stereo and have 7 speakers hooked up, but only 2 speakers are being supplied power, then they will have full use of their amp board, and power supply...

if all speakers are working at the same level, then each speaker "should" receive the same amount of power.

i hope this helps some.
