MUSIC POWER CONCEPT 
MUSIC POWER is (according tothe IEC clauses n.268-3 of Jan 83) the maximal powerwhich the amplifier is capable of producing across the
rated load resistance (regardless of non linearity) 1 sec after the application of a sinusoidal input signalof frequency 1KHz. 
According to this definitionour method of measurement comprises the following steps:
1) Set the voltage supply at the maximum operating value -20%
2) Apply a input signal in the form of a 1KHz tone burst of 1sec duration; the repetition period of the signal pulses is > 60 sec
3) The output voltage is measured 1 sec from thestart of the pulse
4) Increase the inputvoltage until the output signal show a THD = 10%
5) The music power is thenV 
The targetof this method isto avoidexcessive dissipation in the amplifier.
