Most of the time its between 3 and 6 watts for casual listening, serious listening 100 watt peaks. Yes I have pegged the meters a few times over 600 watts with out the power guard flashing and the sound remained smooth well definded and grabbed and shook my thighs -with great affect. The amps can delicate too and the sound is so life like playing great direct to disc LP's and telarc and Reference Recordings CD's.
