I want to buy 5 speakers and 1 sub woofer. Does that mean the maximum output from all speakers must be equal or less than 290 watts??? Can i buy 100 watts speakers?? thanks in advance.
its all depends what kind of speaker your buying. what is its input power capacity it can sustain continuously like rms power of the speaker. normally floorstanding speaker require more input power to function with full capacity as compare to the book shelf speakers or satellite speakers. so if your buying floorstanding speakers then u need have the receiver who can output power compatible with the speaker. normally all floorstanding speakers, input rms power greater than 100 watts. u can buy 100 watts speakers but you have to buy the receiver who will be capable to feed this sort of speaker. if you are buying 5 no. of speaker whose rms power is 100 watts then 5x100 500 watts is the total rms power. Then u need to buy receiver who can feed rms 100 watts each channel. if u want to buy the speaker then don't only go for its rms power capacity. u need to know several things before u buy any speaker. 1. go for speaker who has high effecieny. 2.how no. of crossovers it has, the more no. of crossovers then it is good for speaker like 3-way or 4-way or more. 3.go for quality bookshelf speakers or floorstanding speaker for better sound, don't go for satellite speakers. 4.search through internet who are the best company regarding speaker qualities and its performance. 5.go for speaker which includes tweeter and woofer.
