Power Output - YORKVILLE VTC Pro Audio V42 Manuel De L'utilisateur

Power Output

All values are in WATTS. Measurements were made at the 0.1% distortion point. Some CON-
TINUOUS AVERAGE POWER measurements required line currents greater than 15 Amps. The
amplifier under test was plugged into an IDEAL POWER LINE consisting of a REGULATED 120
VAC RMS 60 Hz pure sine wave. Ordinary AC "wall outlet" lines will always exhibit varying
and unpredictable amounts of voltage sag. To produce objectively verifiable and accurate
specifications these unknown factors must be eliminated by using an ideal AC line. When
using an ordinary electrical outlet, it will usually be possible to get 2400 Watts when the V42
is bridged into 4 ohms (V44 bridges at 8 ohms). The BURST measurements use a 10mS burst
at 1 KHz with a 1/8 second pause between bursts. The 1 KHz burst represents the maximum
possible sine wave output power.
