Amplifier Current Draw—100 VAC
"Current draw" is the amount of AC current an amplifier demands while it is operating. Measurements
are provided for various loads at idle, 1/8 of average full power, 1/3 of average full power, and full
usage; for 230- and 100-volt operation, see the companion sheets. For typical usage, use the idle and
