    The document provides information on the current draw and thermal dissipation of the Powersoft K20 amplifier under different operating conditions: 1) Current draw and thermal dissipation are provided for standard musical program playback at 1/8 rated power and for heavy duty operation like techno music at 1/4 rated power. 2) Current draw and thermal dissipation values are given for different load configurations at both 1/8 and 1/4 rated power levels, including stereo and bridged modes for 8 ohm, 4 ohm, 2 ohm, and 16 ohm loads. 3) Even when switched off, the amplifier draws a small amount of current to allow a bleeding resistor to discharge residual current

    CURRENT DRAW & THERMAL DISSIPATION

    K20
    Current draw and thermal dissipation

    The following table presents information on amplifier AC current consumption as well as thermal dissipation during a standard
    musical program, as can be pop or rock music, (1/8 rated output power) and during extreme heavy duty operation as could be
    highly compressed techno music (1/4 rated output power)

    *Power absorption with amplifier switched off is not 0 because by EN60065/IEC 60065:2001-12 in any amplifier must be
    positioned a bleeding resistor across the incoming AC mains power line to discharge residual current in case of amplifier
    disconnection from the mains.
