This graph shows the Powerbloc2’s left amplifier channel (green), with two channels driving 8-ohm loads. Measurements for THD+noise, crosstalk, signal-to-noise ratio, and analog/digital frequency response were all within expected performance parameters.

0.1% THD 1.0% THD
Two Channels Continuously Driven, 8-Ohm Loads 310.3 watts 367.1 watts
Two Channels Continuously Driven, 4-Ohm Loads 598.8 watts 714.6 watts

PowerBloc4

This graph shows the Powerbloc4’s amplifier channel 1 (red), with channels 1&3 driving 8-ohm loads. Measurements for THD+noise, crosstalk, signal-to-noise ratio, and analog/digital frequency response were all within expected performance parameters.—MJP
