1/8 power is typical of program material with occasional clipping. Refer to these figures for most applications.
1/3 power represents program material with extremely heavy clipping.
Test signal: Pink Noise, bandwidth limited from 22Hz to 22kHz
1W = 0.860kcal/h, 1BTU = 0.252kcal
Note that Line Voltage [V] x Line Current [A] = [VA], not equals to [W].

Troubleshooting

Possible Cause
There is a short at a speaker
terminal, amplifier terminal, or
wire.
The amplifier load is excessive.
The heat sink temperature has
exceeded 85°C (185°F).
The heat sink temperature has
exceeded 95°C (203°F).
Possible Cause
A DC voltage of ±2 V or greater
was generated in the power
amplifier's output circuit.
Possible Cause
A DC voltage of ± 2 V or
greater was generated in the
power amplifier's output circuit.

Remedy
Locate and correct the cause of
the short.
Use a speaker system with an
impedance of at least 4 Ω
(STEREO/PARALLEL mode) or
8 Ω (BRIDGE mode).
Check the ventilation slots, and
provide better airflow around
the amplifier.
Check the amplifier ventilation
conditions and take appropriate
measures to improve the
airflow around the amplifier.
Remedy
Consult your dealer or the
nearest Yamaha service center.
