Hi - I want a ball-park estimate of how many watts my speakers are using in my listening room with my equipment and favourite music playing. It seems to me that I should be able to estimate this using a multimeter and simple math, but I do not know how. Can someone tell me?I did a search of the archives, but haven't found an explanation yet - maybe I am using the wrong key words.
I know that my multimeter probably won't be fast enough and that the impedence changes, but again, I just want an estimate.
I am doing this because I am starting to think about buying a new amp. But I do not want to spend my money on, say, a pretty good 250 watt amp if all I really need and what I should be buying is an excellent 35 watts.
Thanks, Chr3is
