Pre and TT OK- not the power amp. When you get the Oppo and Rogue only the Oppo and turntable.

ET

Volts X Amps = Watts A piece of gear will list its maximum consumption of AC power in watts, usually right next to where the AC line goes into the component -

  v x I = watt is true if it is true resistive load (power factor =1), most equipment these day will be rated in VA instead because of non linear load that will be seen by your AC power because the power supply in your machine may have switching power supply pr highly iductive or capacitive loads.
