7 Specifications
Note: All measurements apply to all models of CH and CL series
amplifiers in stereo mode with 8-ohm loads and an input sensi-
tivity of 26-dB gain, 1-kHz at rated power unless other otherwise
specified. Specifications for units supplied outside the U.S.A.
may vary slightly at different AC voltages and frequencies.
