than 0.025% THD
1260 watts into 4 ohms from 20Hz to 20kHz, with no
more than 0.050% THD
Maximum Power at 1% THD:
300 watts per channel into 8 ohms
500 watts per channel into 4 ohms
700 watts per channel into 2 ohms

Note: Power ratings are specified at 120VAC (U.S. and
Canada) and 240VAC (Export) line voltages.
The M•1400/M•1400i power amplifier draws large
amounts of current from the AC line with continuous
sine wave testing. Accurate measurement of power re-
quires a steady and stable AC supply. This means the
line impedance must be very low to insure that the peak
AC line voltage does not sag to less than 97% of its value.
If driving highly reactive loads, we recommend that the
limiter circuit be engaged.
