codhead Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Check out the calculators over at the Crown Audio site: http://www.crownaudio.com/amp_htm/designstools.htm If you download the .zip file listed under "For PocketPC", they'll run just fine with your browser (Javascript). Great for those "How much power do I need?" questions. Also Power, Voltage, Loss, Ohm's Law. Nice freebies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauln Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 At 3m listening distance 80db desired level 104dB speakers 10dB headroom the answer is..... 0 watts????? Try it your self.. I hope those Crown engineers aren't using this tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben. Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Well, it is a lot closer to 0 than 1W... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMcGoo Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 It's a rounding error. The power was less than .05, so zero was the "logical" answer. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codhead Posted January 22, 2006 Author Share Posted January 22, 2006 Hopefully those Crown engineers will get this straightened out prior to the release of their new 500 milliwatt reference amp! [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
