power consumption


For those of us deprived of good cheap pwer in california, how does one calculate the energy usage / unit time of our audio equipment?

Can you figure it out fomr the specs alone and if so, how?

thanks

Mrowlands, ...only 200w? My damned Aleph 2 monos idle at 600w!! Mounting under the floor joists in the basement helped with the heat, but there's still that energy-gulping guilt to shoulder! At least I power 'em down (didn't we used to just say "shut 'em off"?) when not in use. The one-hour warmup subtly precludes sponataneous use though, so I probably don't listen as often as I would if they were left on continuously. Oh well....
