Apt, I understand where you are coming from, but I think you are looking at the wrong end of the amp to get the results you need. What you are measuring is the amperage at the output of the amplifier, but you should be measuring how much juice it takes to create that output. Your math is correct, but you are just looking at it the wrong way.

Damn, that was tough to stick up for Knu!! wink


That's where my biggest error lies. Efficiency. I realize nothing's perfect, but did not realize that it was that low (~35%), wow! I would have guessed in the 85% range.
