    ...or even worse, what they're selling doesn't appear to be the wattage they claim it is.

    For one, "360 watts peak/300 watts continuous" isn't possible mathematically. It'd be closer to 360/252.

    Secondly, unless everything is hidden inside that subwoofer, there's not enough room for heatsinks inside the receiver itself that are big enough to cool 100 watts of power, much less 252 or even 300....unless of course they use a class B or C amplifier in which case your sound suffers.

    Regardless, I agree with the top two posters...stop posting...especially since it's questionable at best.

    (yes, as a matter of a fact I AM an electrical engineer, thanks for asking)

    #4 Hey, don't joke. Apparently it's a well-educated stick. I think they smell different.

    360 watts, my foot.
    No audio system can put out more watts than it draws from the wall. Nowadays HT systems put out more fine print than wattage. My 45 watt vintage stereo can smoke this mass produced plastic pos.
    Look at the back of the amp for power draw and subtract about 30% of it in the form of heat, you'd be surprised at what you see.
