I am building a new house and wiring for in ceiling speakers in most of the rooms and a few out at the patio/pool. My question is how many watts do I really need for the indoor ceiling speakers? It will be a little more than just background as I do like to turn it up from time to time, but none of the rooms are primarily listening rooms. I read that as low as 10-20 watts per channel are enough but that just seems low. I would like (I think) at least 50 watts per channel.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
