lights in carver tfm15 going dim when meter at 25w


tfm15 hooked to the bass of nht2.5i, power meters lights dim when meter reads 25 watts durring heavy bass (alicia keys why dont you call me anymore). could the amp be running out of power at 25 watts? i know the 2.5i hogs power. the lights normanly brown out closer to 100 watts, when hooked to cerwin vega. does this indicate clipping?

does this mean using switched ac output in the back of my hk avr20ii in not a good idea? makes power up easy since amp is at ground level. to make things worse my whole system is pluged in to (newpoint powerstrip $10 walmart) which is pluged into ex-cord 50 feet long to reach closest unused circut. all other circuts cloged with my wifes junk. would a shorter refer cord be better? future plans to run circut for system only plus others, any tips?
