that website just copies the specs from the philips website.

And again, we find the same numbers here:

20 watts x 2 (20 watts per speaker) watts "rms"
40 watts total power (which is 20w + 20w)
and 80 watts max "RMS" (lie, max power is NEVER defined in rms...) total combined system power, for, about one milisecond, that is...

and i could also measure the power at 50%THD, and they'd put out 100 watts per speaker then, who knows, they'd sound awful, but they'd put it out, and you'd believe it.

That's the point, you believe their sales techniques.

yet, you know absolutely nothing. You don't even know what all those numbers actually mean, you think the specs are the holy numbers that define the quality of the speakers,

they don't. in fact, most of them here are lies.

another thing, the "power bandwidth", defined as "19950.0 hz", vague number, actually wrong number too, because you know nothing with it.

power bandwith is defined between 2 values, in this case, supposedly "between 50hz and 20khz", again, we do not know the db increase/decrease at those points, so in the end, we learn nothing new, again...

does make you wonder eh, that even the manufacturer doesn't give "exact" readings and measurements?

get over it, they're just another pc speaker, nothing special...
