Notes:
All power matrix specifications are based on a 0.1% regulated 120 VAC, 60 Hz power mains and an ambient room temperature of 70° F (21° C).
1. Continuous power in the context of Federal Trade Commission testing is understood to be a minimum of five minutes of operation. Harmonic distortion is measured at the RMS sum total as a percentage of the fundamental output voltage. This applies for
all wattages greater than 0.25 watts.
2. A 1 kHz sine wave is presented to the amplifier and the output monitored for nonlinear distortion. The level is increased until the THD reaches 0.1%. At this level the average power per channel is reported.
3. A single cycle sine wave is presented to the amplifier and monitored for nonlinear distortion. The average power during the burst is reported. Loudspeakers must be able to withstand this level if they are to be safely used with this amplifier.
4. A 40 millisecond burst or a two cycle sine wave (whichever is of greater duration) is used and the power computed as the average power during the burst. The duty cycle of this test is 10 percent. This power level is a measure of how loud an amplifier is
as perceived by the human ear.
5. EIA standard RS-490 (both channels driven).
