So this is interesting. I read posts from various people asking for ideas for small auto-switching amps. My new Audioengine A2 speakers are auto-switching and I was measuring their power usage today (as there's no way to tell if they're "on" or "off"). Roughly 6W playing, 0W after the timeout (seems to be a few minutes). Excellent! Then I wondered about the T-amp which is used in another room - it's not auto-switching and I wanted to make sure it wasn't eating power as I frequently forget to turn it off. It draws a whopping 1W when playing at decently loud volume through regular bookshelf speakers. I'm not sure how that is possible (my AC theory is flaky at best!) but I'm not worried about the auto-switch anymore! -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42445 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
