FYI - Just to make you aware that this model has two exact speaker versions (a powered one - 1000 RMS and passive one - 250 RMS). Info on manual?

Thanks for contacting KPODJ, The ZLX12P is a powered speaker, the ZLX12 is a non powered speaker.

We have the powered speakers. There is a price difference, powered more expensive. The EV website has more info.

I'm pretty sure it's RMS. It's quite powerful depending on your speaker setup. Sounds great with my 'classic' set of Klipsch.

me too I found out the the 4th digit is a letter hence the #one had to be an I. They could say that in the manual and save alot of grief. I'm now trying to hook up external speakers because I don't care for the sound - - -will I need an amplifier anyone know?

just for one, and if you look you can find the 75T for the same price and they are a lot better speaker, amazon isn't the only one selling these

I'm not an expert, but I went off of the 175W per channel rating when I bought this. The speakers I got were Polk Audio TSi 400's that are capable of taking 200W of power so I knew that the receiver couldn't overpower the speakers if I cranked it up.

Per the Manual:Output Power, 2 channels driven 4-Ohm, 1 kHz, 1% THD - 15Wx24-Ohm, 1 kHz, 10% THD - 23Wx2Max Power - 75Wx2Not sure how they get the "max power" figures, 15x2 is realistic, it sounds pretty good with 5.25" bookshelf speakers at moderate volumes. If you're looking for audiophile quality, driving large speakers, or playing loud music look elsewhere. Perfect for a small room or ambiance on a patio though.

It depends on your settings. I personally wouldn't run that much power to a single speaker of this class. I bought a T500-1bdCP which is rated at 500, but the birth sheet says 811. I burned one up. The installer didn't set the crossover settings on the amp and had the gain too high. After setting the amp correctly I've replaced the speaker and haven't had any trouble since.I do have the same box and subs, but with two speakers in my suv which can handle that load much better.

Im not so sure about the stated impedance.. I have a Yamaha 373 100 watt receiver and it has shut itself off twice with this speaker after playing loudly for a bout an hour. I have been comparing the Daytons, the Micca42(x), Pioneer bs22, some vintage baby advents, Polk T15, NHT Super Zeros and Klipsch kb15s, The Daytons are the only ones that cause my receiver to (presumably) overload/overheat/shutdown. But, they sound great! I am currently using them with a Lepaii 2020Tamp in a small room setup for casual listening without issues.

Great sub-woofer. Just compare the specs from the model you are referring to. Not sure exactly what you mean by classic? there are many versions. For example, in this present time this model you are looking at is now an older version and kicker now has newer versions that handle a bit more RMS Watts

the 2500 is a one speaker unit that sounds good. The 3500 is two speakers about twice the size and it sounds great!! I have both.

I have Model 1530 BIC America RtR series speakers with 325 watts capacity each. I use 4 speakers for surround sound. I am very pleased with my sound.

what are recommended specs for connected powered speakers (e.g., wattage)? there's a very wide range of specs for those kinds of speakers.

Thanks for the response. I can't find the same speakers from anyone and the one set I found were $105/pair used! I may end up with these from what I can tell. These are bookshelf speakers for use here in my basement.

Did you ever find an alternative to the BB2001? Funny, I just bought the im600 today, and it still had the slip in it for the BB2001. I would like to buy a subwoofer for it though, so let me know :) That goes for anybody reading this, too!

I agree, this is a big issue. I also ordered this item from Amazon only to receive the older version with the stands and 75 watt power handling. I returned the item and informed Amazon. I bought locally so I could ensure I received the newer 200W speakers.
