Hi All,

I'm looking at eventually purchasing a 7700 amp.

Also currently looking at devices to deliver consistent, clean power to my home theater equipment.

Manual states that the 7700 amp will use up to 1800 watts. Question is, what is the most likely maximum power usage? How much power is it likely to use driving 7 x 8 amp speakers at reference level in a medium sized room (16'x18') during say the lobby scene of The Matrix?

Basically, I'm wondering if a 1500VA unit is enough to power the amp, or if it requires a 2200VA unit?

Thanks in advance
