So I have this hi-drive base amp, I haven't used it in a while. It isn't supposed to have over 200 RMS watts driving it, please refresh me. Isn't that Swing watts?
Many Thanks--Farmer Brown

Re: RMS Watts
A "RMS" or "Average" watt meter just shows the basic output with very little swing when talking where a "PEP" or "peak" reading watt meter shows the swing wattage or the highest power output the equipment is making.

Re: RMS Watts
Average power can still be swing. DK 50w and swing up to 200 average. Depends on amp you are using and how you were told to run it.
