[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8246420, member: 655960"] You can do anything you like but doing it doesn't make it correct. And yes, you can clamp test an amp with a resistor and use the DC power formula. But you cannot clamp test an amp in a real world environment with a resistor. Nor can you apply the DC power formula to a reactive load and get a correct answer. Moreover, what is a "proper" clamp test? Resistors are fine but not if I'm looking for real world testing. And if I am looking for real world data, then I cannot use the DC power formula. [/QUOTE]
