How to I measure the watts that my amp is putting out? Is it possible to do this with a DMM? Thanks

Set DMM to AC and connect to speaker Outputs at the amp. Take that number squared and divide by impedance. This will give you peak numbers at that frequency (best to do this with test tones)

When you use test tones, what frequency should you use for this example?

50hz recorded at 0DB is good.
