Who knows exactly what the speakers are. They are Klipsh R512-M with a stated sensitivity of 93dB, but I'm just doing a listening test. I just want to know that 25 watts-ish per channel sounds like. I'm going to listen to the speakers and watch the voltage of the DMM, then just do a quick average in my head. Then see what the calculator spits out for general wattage.
It may help if I say the reason is that I just bought the Aiyima 08 Pro, and while I like it just fine, I'm on the fence as to whether I should keep it, or return it for the new Topping MX3s. According to Hatto here, "The test [08 Pro] covers all power levels available, but A08 only clears the -80dB threshold for the 1-10W interval, while MX3s clears the -90dB threshold for at least the 2-23W interval."
He is getting his soon, so I hope he will test it and give his information before the 30 return window for my 08 Pro closes. The 08 Pro, does 75 watts per channel at "less than 1% THD. If I never listen to anything over 20 watts, there is no reason for me to keep the 08 over the Topping MX3s (It does 30W x2 at 1%). I do like the looks of the Aiyima 08 Pro though. I love the VU meter. But then I love the sleek look of the Topping MX3 also. I do not like Topping trying to get 200 bucks out of it. It was recently on sale for 169.00.
