The formula above is very applicable for calculating the size of wire needed for the power supply feed and fusing for the amp.
I use 2 X 8" focal woofers operating at 2 ohm with a Focal amp that 'produces' 800 watts @ 2 ohm. It 'drives' them well.

me too, as far as being corrected on a commonly used term that really does not matter in such a casual conversation about power amps.
the formula is really not needed in calculating wire size and fuse since you are concerned about current draw, not power produced.
