Sensitivity, impedance minima and amplifier current explained with in-room measurements, including the cases where a bigger amplifier changes nothing at all.
A room-first plan for a 5.1.2 system under 20 m2: budget split, channel order, wiring runs, subwoofer placement and the measurements that decide each step.
What IP ratings do and do not promise, why amplifier distance changes the wire gauge, and the three line items that usually double an outdoor audio budget.
The real difference is bass extension and usable output, not size. Here is the room-volume threshold, the measured SPL cost and the crossover point where it flips.
