I also had the Sunfire Cinema Grand Signature that is the 400 WPC version. It is identified by a gold Bob Carver Signature on the front.
At the time, I went to Tweeter Etc and bought a Monster Power conditioners and plugged it into the amplifier "High Current" outlet.
The Monster fried immediately. I took it back to Tweeter, telling them, that it could not handle the amp.
The salesman insisted I take a replacement, it fried as well and they gave me my money back.
So, yes these require tremendous cosmic power when turned on
