measuring the maximum output power of an amp

Post by eyesofra »

hi again frens ,

Most PG amps are underrated on their spec sheet rite.
So just being curious ,how much power an Octane-R 15.0.1 is actually capable of, before clipping of course.

These are actually stated on the birthsheet that comes with some amps like the xenon series but the octane r line, i guess was never given this individual attention... :(

And is there a way to do this without an o-scope , by just using a DMM probably ?

If someone have measured it before , pls do share the experience and result.

Thank You
Mackenzie

Only way to truely measure power before clipping is with an o scope.
