TT ~15W max
GFP565 ~10W max
GFP545 ~200W plus overhead 20W (?) is it peak or continuous (?)
Oppo DVD player 20W (?)

265W total if estimates for amp are reasonable. This says 300W will work, however more overhead is always better when speccing power conditioning. Also if my assumptions of amp power being peak draw could also mean too little overhead and cause compression/distortion during loud spots.
