Load per channel ->
1/8 Power 1/3 Power Full Power
Current draw at 1/8 of full power is measured with pink
noise as a signal. It approximates operating with music or
voice with light clipping and repesents the amplifier's
typical "clean" maximum level, without audible clipping.
Use these figures for typical maximum level operation. Current draw at 1/3 of full power is measured with pink
noise as a signal. It approximates operating with music or
voice with very heavy clipping and a very compressed
dynamic range. Current draw at full power is measured with a 1 kHz sine
wave. However, it does not represent any real-world
operating condition.
