PA Amp: 1000w/ch @ 4ohms (x2 channels)

Channel A (full range) = 1000w into (2) 400watt (program), 800watt (peak) FoH
Channel B (subs) = 1000w into (2) 400watt (program), 800watt (peak) FoH

Oh wisened electronic geeks... please assure me that at least in theory this setup won't blow up my speakers?


(Monitors run on a completely different amp, FYI)

Thanks!


What amp you using? and what are the speakers? Sometimes you really gotta be careful with manufactures amp and speaker wattage ratings.
Some combinations love alittle extra power others not so much.
