	Audio power - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term RMS is used due to the fact that the mean power is calculated from the RMS voltage and current (or one of them and the impedance).
		The PMPO is calculated by the vendor or tester of the speakers as the maximum power in watts available under perfect conditions that are impossible to achieve in practical use.
		In the US on May 3, 1974, the Amplifier Rule CFR 16 Part 432 (39 FR 15387) [1] was instated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requiring audio power and distortion ratings for home entertainment equipment to be measured in a defined manner with power stated in RMS terms.

	What is PMPO? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
		PMPO is a controversy term, as many feel it is used as a marketing ploy, since the perfect conditions on which PMPO are based are next to impossible to achieve in a home where the speaker system is set up.
		The PMPO of a speaker is actually based on the maximum power output in a very small period of time (microseconds).
		The alternative to PMPO is RMS (Root Mean Square), which is an accurate mathematical representation of a speaker's power output, measured over time rather than a few microseconds.

		Philips Fun Power Plus MMS-102 PC speakers: 10W rms, 120W PMPO (however, the Philips data sheet mentions only the rms value; the PMPO value is claimed by retailers)
		AC power, which includes audio, is rated in watts rms, which is equivalent in heating value to DC watts.

	RMS vs PMPO
		PMPO (Peak Music Power) refers to the maximum amount of power output that the speaker can produce at it's peak.
		A PMPO rating is not necessarily indicative of the performance of a speaker throughout a wide frequency range.
		I don't want to knowq the pmpo rating instead i want to know the rms rating of what is given in pmpo.

		The PMPO, in making these final decisions, reserves the right to allow the mentor, who faces sanctions, the opportunity to write a statement on his/her behalf to be utilized in the final review by the PMPO.

		Yankee Group found that enterprise investment in PMPO leads to 10% to 20% profit improvements at a rate unlike any other packaged software solutions on the market.
		"PMPO has been the best-kept secret of early enterprise adopters, many of whom are using these solutions to outmaneuver competitors and gain market share," said Kosin Huang, program manager at Yankee Group.
		Enterprises are beginning by rolling out a price optimization, price execution or price analysis solution; however, these deployments are self-funding and are building momentum for the adoption of the full suite of pricing capabilities, which includes all three modules.

	Amplifier Power Ratings
		An alternative (and equally useless) way to measure PMPO is to multiply the supply voltage by the instantaneous short-circuit current from the amplifier - the amplifier does not have to survive this test, and the current only has to exist for around 1us to obtain a satisfactory rating...
		PMPO may now readily be calculated, using a median value of 40 which results in a totally satisfactory advertising power (P
		For example it has been claimed that PMPO is calculated as the maximum instantaneous power an amplifier can deliver, albeit under unrealistic conditions.

	bit-tech.net Forums - what does P.M.P.O mean
		PMPO is really a worthless measurement it can be manipulated to show just about anything heres and example
		PMPO (Peak Music Power Output) is a utterly useless power measurement, it is what the unit can deliver for an instant, manufactures do this to inflate unit wattage ratings to make an amplifier look more powerfull than they really are.
		RMS (Root Mean Square), this is the most common power rating it is more usefull than PMPO as it is in general "continuous" half rated output.

	Hydrogenaudio Forums -> RMS and PMPO, and implications for "loudness race"
		I always thought it was the maximum amount of power that could be provided for 10ms without destroying the amplifier.
		yes, well obvioulsy i wasn't advocating PMPO as a scientific measure, but it's got to come from somewhere or consumers would sue (maybe they should).
		my point was that by a reasonably cynical definition of PMPO (max transient response without damage), it can be assumed that dynamic tracks can be handled without damaging the equipment, and (depending on power supply, i'd read that but didn't feel it necessary to mention) would sound pretty good too.

		The vendor of the product calculates PMPO based on the maximum power output of the device under perfect conditions and 100% efficiency.
		These conditions are impossible to obtain, and no device can sustain the PMPO power for any significant length of time without being ruined.
		The PMPO power relies on the fact that amplifiers can provide short bursts of very high power.
