Actual real RMS watts.

Those amplified speakers used for computers. I don't know how many W my
Altec Lansings with a subwoofer pump out, but they do the business on a
Roland Virtual Guitar. Many people will have spares from buying new PC

I have speakers, I am just looking for the amps.
Thanks for the references, I was wondering if such a thing existed
already boxed, as it's in the range of a 1 chip class D amp, which could
do it lots cheaper than with linear amps, as well as using less power, and
needing less heatsinking.
