an average output power equal to 1/8 of full power. The one eighth of the total power is as loud as you
can play music while making some attempt to avoid obvious clipping. It also corresponds to a headroom
of 9dB, which is very low for regular audio program.

he heat power produced is the difference between the power consumption and output power:
roduced in watts, in kcal per hour, and also in BTU per hour.
he efficiency can also be calculated, it being the output-power divided by the input-power:
