So if 1.66 Vrms is needed to power the amp to its maximum than what is the 2.34 V peak? Is that the peaks it can reach?
It is different ways of measuring an input signal. Peak to peak to the voltage between peaks of the sine wave, while RMS is calculated and is a lower number even for the same sine wave.

The average (RMS) voltage of a sinewave = peak voltage / squrt(2).

Full explanation here.

Oh, okay interesting. So, then the 1.66Vrms is what we look at right?
