Originally, all audio equipment manufacturers had to use
the same tests and measurements to identify the capabilities (watts)
of their equipment.
Many years ago (I _think_ during Regan's pro-business administration)
the US government changed the laws for labeling stereo equipment.
Now a manufacturer can use any method they want to "measure" the
wattage of their equipment. In other words, what's on the outside
of the box is meaningless...
