Well... this is no defense of Behringer's specific numbers, but amplifiers are transient power devices (unless you prefer listening to sine waves over actual music). It's pretty easy to get transient power from a 120v/15a outlet with a sufficient amount of capacitance. Bonus: a 15a circuit can deliver far more than 15a in transient. See breaker trip curves. As an EE, these are things you should understand.

Best deal on the Behringer NX6000D since early 2019 according to CCC.

They now show as backordered at several retailers, but still orderable. Great price if you are willing to wait for it.

Edit: In my original post, I mentioned that the NX6000D will not output its rated power, but that was edited out. This has become quite a topic of conversation!

If you think of the NX6000D as a ~1,500 W/ch amplifier capable of some higher peaks, then you won't be disappointed. It is still one of the most watts-per-dollar value amps you can buy new today with a U.S. warranty.

The E.E. in me can't let this pass without a snide comment.
What outlet do they plug this into when they measure 6000/2800 watts of output power?

Please, be snide! I'm no EE, but super duper mystery measurement "watt output" is an all too common marketing tactics for "pro" audio. It's very frustrating when you are a serious consumer. A lot of people must buy those numbers considering this has been common marketing practice for decades.

They use flux capacitors to make more energy than they consume. So any standard 110V plug.

Don't even need high gauge power wire. Though silver or gold wire will make the sound better. If only Ed Sheeran knew what we hifi snobs do.

Same with speaker wire ^

All the so called physics noobs claiming energy cannot be created or destroyed are obviously misinformed.

For example there is a 1700W Samsung speaker listed in slickdeals that only pulls 100W max lfrom the wall plug. See it creates 17x more energy !

Samsung would never lie or exaggerate.

Of course when I was looking for these to go on sale couldn't find them on sale but as soon as I gave up and got a pre built sub, it shows up on sale. Sigh.

Are these only used to power subwoofers or can they be used for front towers?

Instead of RMS, they use ILS to measure watts. (ILS = If Lightning Strikes)

I should have preference my statement as pertaining to continuous or RMS power. If an amp has sufficiently large capacitors it's instantaneous or very short term output power can exceed the maximum continuous input power.

If your towers can handle that kind of power then yes.

I would suggest getting a 3 channel amplifier for your L,C,R so they all get the same power with same signal. You will be blown away how good it will sound.

I fully understand the multitude of layers of the onion. But showcasing only transient performance under the absolute best possible conditions is a plaque in the audio industry for almost a century now.

If you wish to peel the onion further: if you measure the timing between a large output transient and an increase of current from the wall circuit, they are not in time alignment. In fact, the wall current will be appreciably delayed. If the output transient is sufficiently short enough, it would be over before wall current can react.
How is this possible? It's a stack-up of components and each has their own time response characteristics. During an output transient the 'power' comes from the voltage rail's capacitance. The amp's power supply will then react and start recharging the voltage rail capacitance, etc etc.
But again, this is all very short transients and is not germane to the issue that most people will believe this is a true (6000/2800) watt amplifier.

Let's put it this way, most EE graduates these days do not have a good grasp of Power Systems, it's not their fault, there's just not a lot of classes offered these days that deal with AC power.
