Take the average radio.. a good one claims to do 40 watts per channel, on a 12 volt powersupply and a 4 ohm load, the maximum possible output wattage is 36.. and thats assuming a 100% efficient amplifier (which doesnt exist)
Well, you are right about the 36 watts. But many car audio amplifiers use inverters these days, allowing them to increase the voltage manyfold. Thus they may have fifty plus volts to play with (no pun intended) and can output many watts... but usually these are not RMS (continuous) watts, but PMPO or some crap like that.
