Watts - Volts and Resistance


Hi,

I got a Fisher 514 Receiver for next to nothing, it's those Quad type of receivers. I haven't been able to get any ''free'' info on the net about it, I would only want to know how mant WPC this monster delivers.
This is what I read in the back of the unit:

535 watts / 675 VA / 4 ohm Max.

Can somebody tell me the max power output with and 8 ohm load ?

Thanks,
foxtrot

The '535' and '675' must be power-CONSUMPTION amounts. The '4 Ohm Max.' must mean that power compumption is while the unit is delivering maximum power into 4-Ohm speakers.

Those numbers have nothing do to with the audio-power output.

Why not connect it to some speakers and hear if it delivers enough clean-sounding output?
