Is that 900 W the so called power consumption spec? If it is, we don't really know the conditions under which the unit would consume 900 W, such as how many channels, driven to what level, what's the load impedance, is it for "continuous" running, if not, for what duation... etc. etc.. ?
When it comes to power consumption spec, there seem to be no standard that all manufacturers could, or would follow. D+M always give just one number, power consumption XXX W, period.. Yamaha usually would provide two numbers, one just power consumption and the other "maximum power consumption.
Example: below are the specs for the RX-A1080, copied from the Owner's manual:
Power Consumption
[U.S.A. and Canada models] ......................................................450 W
[Other models] ...........................................................................420 W
Maximum Power Consumption
[Brazil, Asia, Taiwan, Central and South America and General models]
..........................................................................................................1190 W
Even if the given 900 W "power consumption" means the transformer is rated 900 W, or more properly, about 1125 to 1200 VA based on pf of around 0.8, we still cannot do our math to figure the maximum output, because class AB amp's efficiency can range between approx 50% to 78% and the manufacturer may factor in the non continuous nature of music programs so they may size the transformer aggressively such as based on less than 1 VA/W output, or more conservatively using a factor >1, may be even 2 but that's highly unlikely for AVRs. Actually I should just say I don't know.
