You make that sound like a good thing. A large headroom figure is merely measure of how bad the power supply is.
Oh and the frequency response is shockingly bad. Still, it is a cheap, attractive amp. It won't be going in my system. My amplifier has no measurable headroom. Maximum power is 220 Watts continuous. Peak power is 220 Watts. Which is how it should be. Of course, a 5kVA power transformer and 310,000uF of filter capacitance makes for a very stiff power supply.
