How can the AMP10 drive my 100W(+) outdoor speakers ?” Answer –
Wattages quoted for speaker output and the input required to drive a speaker are almost two different things. TIC, as a professional speaker manufacturer, regularly tests our outdoor speakers in an anechoic chamber at 1W with an anechoic mic 1M away to find S.P.L. (sound pressure level). Many of our outdoor speakers admired by new customers at theme parks, resorts and hotels are being run on a commercial audio 70v system, at 10W. Surprising to them when they comment upon how great they sound. The AMP10 regularly powers our own 200W outdoor speakers. The greatest limiting factor, as always, is resistance down the line where power is lost due to speaker cable length vs. gauge.
