To me they're suggesting pep power which makes the actual wattage 350 watts.

The Z5500 has 1010 watts pep or 505 watts

You got that right, but either wire, or take out a mortgage and buy a bose "or" hire a gorrila and buy a 1 ton van to carry the good old stuff..(What ever works for each guy) (not a easy solution) ......

This might be good in a 'stable' environment, but the 55's cover most gigs for me, and if I need more for a larger gig or outdoor use, I use bigger cabs with the sub instead of the sats ... Why would we want to add two more sats to whatever rig set up we might have for the 55s ?!? ... doesn't make much sense for me ...

Something is fishy. I can't imagine that the RMS power would be the same as total burst power rating.

I think that one or the other is a misprint, but it makes me doubt both.
