Specified wattage on solid state receivers is relative to how they're measured. It's actually pretty complicated, so rather than try to explain it all here, I'll just point you to a great article that explains why there really is no direct answer to your question, but can arm you with the info to figure out what the actual wattage would be for a given pair of speakers: http://www.techlore.com/article/10309/Understanding-Amplifier--amp--Receiver-Power-Specifications/

Hi there.Put the make and model no.in your search engine and see if it comes up with the specifications for continuous output in watts rms.Also there may be an independent review on that model to see if the specs. hold up.Or if you like type in the brand and model no. and i will have a look.
