Would this power a pair of outdoor rock speakers? ( ~88 dB, 8 Ohms, 45 Watts Nominal and 100 Watts Max, and ~50ft 16AWG wire run for each)

Short answer NO! This is a very small Amplifier, it is rated at 50 watts. Cooling is a problem with them. http://www.cirris.com/testing/resistance/wire.html gives the resistance of the wire.Dayton Audio DTA-100a Class-T Digital Amplifier 50 Watts Per Channel (Black) will drive the speakers at a moderate volume , but the question is this, for how long? 50 foot of cable to the speakers is a lot of wire to run an under specification amplifier on, and at 0.40160 ohms per 100 meters, plus the resistance at the terminals. They are 100 watts speakers full stop. Long answer, you will not be a happy camper if you try. Short answer NO! This is a very small Amplifier, it is rated at 50 watts.

Yes. I'm currently using t to power two outdoor mid size marine speakers and it is more than adequate. As to the wire gauge and length it seems marginal. A step up in wire size would be my choice. I'm far from an expert on speaker wire however the length seems to be considerable. good luck.

i am currently powering a pair of 80 watts outdoors, but would not think it would do much more.

hi, andreas. i would not know the answer to your question. i do know that we hooked ours up to our amp as our outdoor speakers, and they have worked great. they even have good sound (in stereo). we had been using a wireless speaker, that worked half way decent half the time. these are much better than what we had, and for the price, are A-OK. best, wp

Recommended Power: 10-175 watts RMS per channel, 350-watts peak, Impedance: 8 ohms "http://www.bicamerica.com/showpage.php?brand=2&type;=7&spkrID;=114"I think you will be fine, but at 100 watts these speakers will be very loud.

Not really. Choose an amplifier with power more closely matching that of the speakers. The amplifier can be as much as about 50% more than the speakers rated power requirements. You are more likely to damage your speakers by under-powering them due to signal clipping. Not that this amplifier would damage your speakers, but you would be disappointed by the diminished performance. This amplifier is a 45 watt x 2 channel output. You only get 90 watts output by combining the two channels. You would then have two speakers in MONO (not stereo) at 90 watts maximum.

users guide says 100W x4 max at 14.4VDC and 1kHz, you'll have to decide if that'll work for your speakers and what you're trying to do with them. My uneducated guess is that this thing will get stressed if pushed to the limits. I'm using it well below max and I'm very happy with it driving 4 computer speakers.

Yes. Two each per channel would give you a 4 ohm load per side. You will have to run the amplifier in the stereo mode. That amplifier is stable to 2 ohms. You should have good results.

I did some brief reading about how to match amps and speakers, and my understanding is that the amp's power rating should be less than that of the speakers--around half the peak rated wattage. But as well as power you have to make sure the impedance of the speakers matches the output impedance range of the amp. If you're running two 8 ohm speakers in parallel on each channel, that's actually 4 ohms, so check those numbers. We use this Grace BTAR122 in conjunction with two 80 watt Polk Atrium 4 speakers and it sounds fantastic.

These speakers need power. I have 120W per channel and they could take more. Dont skimp on power.

Depends on how you wire them up. Perallel or in series. I have my single wired in Perallel which dropped it to 2 ohms and I am powering it with a Audiobahn A8000M that has a peak of 2200 watts and an RMS of 1100 watts. It sounds amazing. So if I were to power two subs I'd get a 2000 watt peak power 2 channel amp and bridge it at least.

You haven't provided all the necessary information to receive a worthy answer. We understand you want to power a pair of dual 15" speakers at 8 Ohms, but that's all we know. Complete your research by finding out the power handling ability and capacity of the speakers. Then, look again at the outputs that the amp is capable of. Your answer is then looking right back at you.I assure you this: Relying upon a bunch of people you do not know for answers to questions like this is going to come at a cost. You have no idea that they know anything about which they speak.

I use mine to power a pair of Bose outdoor speakers on my patio. I think that they have good sound & plenty of volume. I use my ipod as the source of music with Bluetooth. The remote has various settings for various types of music i.e. rock & roll, R & B, jazz etc. which I find seems to help the sound. Hope you find this somewhat helpful. I needed a small Bluetooth capable amp for my patio speakers and I wouldn't trade this one.

Yes it will work. If it is two quite you can wire two speakers in parallel on one channel to drop it to 8 ohms.

It all depend on where you are sitting. This is not a powerful speaker and you plan to use outdoor. The audio will be highly diluted. The spec stated 2 neodymium transducers with class D amp and that's it. However, they did not specified the Watt for a reason. My guess is not much, real power output is about 5W, maybe 10W at the most.

You should do some more research as answers vary. Are you running 2channel? Bridged? Read the instructions, I don't recall the output in each mode, but it depends on the resistance of the speakers. Seems to me 250w rms speakers will do fine with that amp...

It would power those no problem. I run 2 400watt 12" with mine and volume notch 2 blasts them things. Anyways those are 1400 peak right? So that's 2800 peak for both sides which should be right where you want to be. The amp is actually 2 1500 watt amps making 3000 total amps.

I'm sure you can plug em into the back. The speaker input is a clip type in which you put the exposed wire into. So yes you can experiment with it and plug other speakers in. Whether or not the outdoor speakers can handle the watts is a different question. Check the max watts on your speakers compare it to . At $175 I'd try it out. The answer simply isn't "No". Lol

If it was the dual 4 ohm voice coil subwoofer it would be fine, the way you'd have to wire the dual 2 ohm version won't give the sub enough power (wired in series for 4 ohms). The amp I got was tested to put out 631 watts rms total, but wiring is the problem here.
