Here’s what Wiki thinks (it’s very long)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AAudio_powerOne line in the text ... For most, just comparing the RMS power number is useful I guess to some - But it’s been a while since I paid any attention to the RMS ...

@luvrokin - what’s the problem with USB?1. if the DAC utilizes the USB power supplied by the computer1a. the power can fluctuate as the hard drive and other parts of the computer draws power - you need a separate power supply like the one from Ene... 
B&W 805D3 - Amp recommendation (Peachtree, Parasound, Hegel or Schiit?)
I’ll throw another amp into the mix - NAIM 5iI have the 5i (mk II) (50w) which has a passive front end - the earlier mk1 had an active pre-amp and was not as good. The new 5i also has a passive front end and is a little more powerful (60w) - not t... 
Looking for input: Best material for mid range cone
I'm not saying my speaker is better, just a different approach than most - that I am extremely happy with -  it uses a Morel 2 1/8" soft dome midrange.http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/gershman-acoustics-sonogram-loudspeaker/I've heard ther...

Help me build speaker cables please!
@toddverrone... Oh man, these things are incredible. It’s not that I’m hearing things I haven’t before.Well - The improved clarity is due to the precise phase alignment of the signals of each sound as it occurs, between L and R channels, which in ...

Take a look at this threadhttps://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/harbeth-c7-vs-proac-d25-reviewIt would appear the C7's might be more along the lines of the sound you are looking for. Or perhaps the Pro Ac D38Regards...

Stereo In The Elements
It's a garage !!! - I would never put those components in it - the dust will get everywhere and will absorb humidity = damage beyond repair.I'd give that system a year - then it's doomed for the garbage.But - it's your systemPersonally I'd buy a m...
