Fran,

After reading the spec sheet I suspect that 30-watts per channel is peak power--not RMS. Keep in mind they say you can run this thing on 8 AA batteries for up to 10 hours. If you were truly drawling 60-watts those tiny batteries would be dead in less than a minute.

This looks like something you could use outdoors to play to a bunch of people sitting on a deck, or something you could use in a living room setting. And, while Roland says it will handle audiences to 80 people I seriously doubt that statement is correct. I don't think you'll have this very long.

Merry Christmas Old Friend,

Gary
