- CEA2006 Specs: 18 watts RMS x 4 channels (at 4 ohms, 20Hz-20kHz, 1% THD-N)
- Maximum Power Output: 60 watts x 4 channels (240 watts total)

Nice unit for a very low price. Easy to use, decent sound when coupled with high end speakers, I was shocked for the price. I know some people said that the LED readout is very slight, but it seems fine. It is obnoxious so that may not be such a bad thing though. Nice value Crutchfield!
