There is no straightforward formula. PMPO and Max Power seem to be marketing ploys nowadays.

Usually, speaker and amplifier manufacturers, given na ang PMPO & RMS.

I'm not sure there's a straight forward conversion, although ang napansin ko is kadalasan RMS is about half of max/peak power.

Usually, in stereo systems (two channel audio). It's PMPO/2/10. PMPO rating divided by number of channels (in stereo, it's two), then divided by 10.

That's as far as i had observed.
