What bass-management crossover filter setting did you have on the channel being measured ?
For that particular test, I measured the left channel, more details below:
Speaker set to large..............2.7 A
Speaker set to small............. 2.1 A (XO 80 Hz)
Center channel................1.6 A (XO 90 Hz)
For some reason, I didn't measure the SPL, or measured but not recorded.
I found another test record:
Source: Telarc CD-80078 Fanfare for the common man
Player: Not recorded, but it was in 2010 so it must have been the DVD3910 that was use in my HT room at the time.
Bass management: pretty sure none, as I would typically do such test using analog pure direct mode for such tests.
Left channel, Vol -5
AVR-4308CI.........................45 Vpk, 15 Apk, SPL 98 dB (obviously the RS spl meter would have been too slow to capture the real peak spl)
AVR-4308CI+GFA555.......39 Vpk, 12.2 Apk, SPL 102 dB
Also compared it with the Denon driving my Bryston SST2 but could not find the records, its there somewhere, I do remember the results were similar, no surprises there..
SPL meter................................... Radio Shack 330-2055 C weighting fast (0.2 sec bar graph response time according to specs)
Fluke 87V peak response time 250 μs so it probably did capture the peak voltage.
Hioki 3282 for current measurements, it's not going to be accurate for current peaks.
I have taken all sorts of measurements including those I used to compare the demand on left, right and center channels, pre-out voltage vs vol positions for both my Marantz AVP and Denon AVR etc., but my file organization is not the best, so it isn't easy to find anything after a while.
Power was never an issue for me at all because I cannot stand ref level, vol -10 to -15 would be as high as I would ever go, and I sit only 10.5-11 ft from my speakers, so having 225 W on tap is more than enough for me. I just like measuring things so I did it for fun and to satisfy my curiosity only. Looking at the measurements I have taken over the years, I can see the need for high power amps (>300 WPC) for some.
