Why the RMS is only 25 watts, is that accurate? null

Hello Escobar. Yes. As passive speakers do not produce any power (they only handle power), when our speakers are rated at a minimum of 25 watts, it means when partnering these speakers with an amplifier, make sure the amplifier's wattage rating is at least 25 watts. The maximum wattage rating for our speakers (for example 200 watts) is suggesting they don't need to be paired with an amplifier which has a wattage rating of more than 200 watts. In short, the Monitor XT60 is comfortable with amplifiers rated anywhere from 25 watts to 200 watts.
