When driving the average home stereo loudspeaker system (e.g., not
horn loaded), in order to reproduce some types of music accurately,
with a suitable dynamic range, a 200W RMS per channel amplifier is not
overkill. Take symphony music, for example, or perhaps a rock opera
such as Tommy (it's quite a trip to listen to!). ...of course, if
you're using some big horn loaded bass cabinets, midrange and hf horns
with compression drivers, all the better with the big amps. :-)
