I've looked at this thread a few times, and watched it devolve. It's actually kind of amusing.

"i came here to ask what the ACTUAL power rating of the ribbon i wanted to use was"

Three things:

1. Get an understanding of power ratings: Peak, RMS, "music program", etc.

2. Get an understanding of musical waveforms and frequency content.

3. Since you want to design/build your own speakers, get these two books:

"Loudspeaker Design Cookbook" by Vance Dickerson.
"Music, Physics and Engineering" by Harry Olson.

Continue from there.
