Kind of painting with a wide brush there...it depends on the amplifier. If it's a class D, it's 80% - 95% efficient. And that's assuming it's amplifying a signal, if there's no signal it'll hardly consume anything. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_amplifier Compare to a class A, which can double as a space heater even when idle. Now - to be fair, I haven't heard of studio monitors powered by class D amplifiers. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40389 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
