[QUOTE="energumeno, post: 2423335, member: 572214"] Hi, Well, this is only my humble newbie opinion but, from what I read, it is suggested to actually disconnect the speakers before taking the voltage measurement in the output of the amp. Shouldn't the fact that the amp is not loaded with any speaker going to affect the voltage reading? I mean, if you disconnect the speakers shouldn't you at least connect a 4 or 2 ohm resistor (depending on the type of speakers you are using) at the speaker output of the amp in order for it to actually put some current flowing out thru the resistor this way loading the amp and enabling you to measure the real voltage that will be feed to the speaker in a real setting?
