What does Current mean in a power amp???


I need a high (at least that is what I am told) current amp to drive my speakers. What numbers should I be looking for?

I am not a tech person so keep the answers a simple as possible. Thanks to all!

Boy...did I get an ear full!!! Only joking folks! I must confess that most of what I read is very interesting but my exposure to technical knowledge is really not there! ( Business Major :)....any way...Sean answered this question by answering my reply to another thred elsewhere!! So Thanks again Sean and I will be on the look out for a Perreaux 3150 power amp (which has high current) needed to drive my sub woofer's (4 ohm load) Infinity's.
To answer MBurns question........I am driving the base sub woofers of the Infinity RS 1_B's. It is described as a low impedence speaker....I believe it is 4 ohms.
