How to use multimeter


Could somebody guide me through a process?
I want to measure an output signal on my power amp to make sure it's equal in both channels ( I suspect it's not).
My idea is to play mono signal (pink noise?) and to measure voltage on amp's speaker terminals with speakers connected.
Please tell me a correct way to do it, I certainly don't want to damage my amp, and want to make sure I'm measuring what I suppose to measure.
If you think I know what settings on multimeter I should use- you are wrong, I don't.
That's what I mean: please guide me through.

Dewald,
Thanks for the detailed response, still I wanted to clarify a few points;
When you say: "Disconnect speaker and connect the MM to ch. A."- wouldn't it be a problem to have an amp running with no load on one channel and a load (speaker B) connectd to the other.
I guess you are saying it's impossible to measure an output voltage with the speaker connected.
Thanks again.
