Topic	Can someone explain the difference between sound output in Watts?
DiScOrDtHeLuNaTiC 05/02/24 4:52:53 PM #4:	BucketCat posted... not necessarily. ohms (resistance), size of the speaker, and size/weight of the magnet can all drastically affect the sound. even ceramic vs alnico can make a difference. at least with guitar amps, wattage doesn't really mean much outside of "this is how much wiggle room you can expect to have before things start breaking up" but even then it's more of a generalized rule rather than "more watts = more louder" Also, wattage is logarithmic. 100w is not "twice as loud as 50w". --- The world may be going to Hell, but I am personally awash with convenience. <cite>DiScOrDtHeLuNaTiC posted [p:980207791] in Can someon...
