Does my amp have enough juice to power my speakers?

love drawing a conclusion based on a sample of one....

from my experience in managing manufacturing operations across the globe for thirty years, the injured are often convinved of the exceptionality of themselves, PRIOR to the injury....

 @rodman99999 thanks for the valuable refreshing link !!!!!

@tomic601 - Actually, I’ve been a High-SPL/Live-Music Universe dweller, in a variety of positions, since a teen. Who would be more conscious of the pitfalls? Still, I’m addicted to the real thing and realism at home. To me, it’s kinda like oxygen. You need it to live, from the time you disconnect from mom and it’s slowly killing you, for the rest of your life. https://www.quora.com/Is-oxygen-literally-killing-us-slowly-in-the-most-unpainful-way

 @rodman99999 As have I, schlepping a stacked pair of Lascalla around the Midwest, then managing a high end audio shop, attending a lot of unamplified as well as amplified shows, then manufacturing where we built 84 wings a month using high speed riveters and hand guns, and now a life of amplified leisure and an acoustic bass and mobile recording rack...

@tomic601 - Purportedly, the world’s first all digital, Pop Music vinyl(1979/BTYD). It got A LOT of demo play, in my showroom.  Funny: I just spun it yesterday, and- that’s always been my favorite cut(SO apropos)! It’ll now be a double entendre, to me. I feel a bit richer already!
