as things go - from a super efficient single driever horn speaker to my "suck your amp's capactors dry" maggies - there's a rather large range of efficiency. I don't think 130watts are an unusual average level at loud play on my speakers, while the same setting would probably vaporize some horn drivers designed to live behind a 4 watt tube amp...In my scenario, 1000 or more watts per channel are just what you need, even though the manufacturer would never put that on the label (not to scare off customers because they don't have such amps...)
