speaker handles up to 200w.  Is that as if it's the only speaker in the array?

Asked by: snafu
The 200w maximum amplifier power rating is for the individual speaker if it were the only one connected through an amplifier. Check out our spec sheet for our Stage speaker series for more information through this link: https://bit.ly/2XgiVKm

is this bluetooth?

Asked by: Anonymous
Our JBL Stage A170 doesn’t feature Bluetooth connection capabilities. You would need to connect our Stage A170 to a receiver or amplifier via speaker wires. Check out our JBL Stage A170 owners' manual for more information through this link: https://bit.ly/2JxkcqH

I’d like to place these and/or similar size standing speakers horizontally in a custom media center, i.e. 3 ft height, and combine with a subwoofer etc...any concerns against this idea.  I already own and love the L890.  Thanks

Asked by: VOVOCUER66
A passive speaker doesn't have any output RMS but it can handle anything between 20-200W at 6 ohms from an amplifier/receiver.
