[QUOTE="gunz4me2, post: 6449928, member: 613729"] A reactive load simulates a subwoofer or is generally the subwoofer or other driver. Under most testing circumstances, I have observed the reactive load showing power numbers up to 25% higher than the resistive load. In other words, the reactive load erroneously skews the results by showing that the amplifier is under rated and is capable of producing more power when in reality it is NOT! I do question your reasoning as to how a reactive load would show "real world usable power". [/QUOTE]
