I've seen lots of small stores with just a handful of speakers in the ceiling and the volume not turned up very high. Smaller stores today are using Heos or Sonos or even Bluetooth speakers. It is commonplace in the USA to have some music in stores, even if it is low volume in the background.
So I don't see why 30W per channel would work fine even in a medium sized store at lower volume.
I started my post with: "This amp is only suitable for small commercial spaces."
 
My office has a "sound masking" system that plays "white" noise through speakers throughout the building. I never really understood the purpose of this since it's at such a low level but this product, at that price, would be perfect for such an application. Home audio?--not so much.

Yeah but why would you need a bunch of different channels for that? Just a single channel amp with 70V/100V output would seem more suitable.

You dont need multiple channels, every speaker gets the same signal so there are much cheaper solutions that are custom designed for the purpose. 70v speaker outs so you can daisy chain and add as many speakers as you need (untill you run out of power), mic inputs that auto mute the music, Bluetooth, etc.
 
I voted poor, not so much for the poor performance but because there are so many more better solutions from companies such as Buckeye, although a little more expensive ($1600 for 8 channels)

 
What the FFT measuring equipment used has sample rate and bit depth?
Any where on this website described?
