50W is stated, in the datasheet, as a continuous power. Other power definitions in the datasheet remain quite unclear.The 5 minute test should be done at rated power which is continuous average power which is clearly stated on the NC252MP data sheet as 50 watts not 250W / 4 ohm that is Max output.
§ 432.4 Optional disclosures.
Other operating characteristics and technical specifications not required in § 432.2 of this part may be disclosed:
Provided:
(a) That any other power output is rated by the manufacturer, is expressed in minimum watts per channel, and
such power output representation(s) complies with the provisions of § 432.2 of this part; except that if a
peak or other instantaneous power rating, such as music power or peak power, is represented under this
section, the maximum percentage of total harmonic distortion (see § 432.2(d) of this part) may be
disclosed only at such rated output: And provided further,
(b) That all disclosures or representations made under this section are less conspicuously, and prominently
made than the disclosures required in § 432.2 of this part; and
(c) The rating and testing methods or standards used in determining such representations are disclosed, and
well known and generally recognized by the industry at the time the representations or disclosures are
made, are neither intended nor likely to deceive or confuse the consumers and are not otherwise likely to
frustrate the purpose of this part.
So may I ask you, according to your opinion, Hypex NC252MP rated power is 2 x 50W/4ohm ? If this is your suggestion, then I have no objections and confirm that the amp passed the test easily.
....
But, what would be this, then?
A "hausnummer"? It should not be
?intended nor likely to deceive or confuse the consumers
