120 watts 2channels drivin at 8 ohms 200 watts 2 channels drivin at 4 ohms this receiver cannot put out 1400 watts, all channels having 4 ohm capability makes this an attractive, powerfull reciever.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, I noticed that too. I think it is 130w/channel (continuous) and 200w peak. Which is about 940w continuous, or 1400w peak.

Here goes: Refer to the Advanced Manual for the SC-LX501. http://jp.pioneer-audiovisual.com/manual/sclx501/adv/en/001.html Depending on the impedance of your speakers, you can determine the total continuous power output to expect. I have owned similar Pioneer amps before; these are class D, they are solid, and deliver! EXAMPLE: Assume you have seven speakers and they are all 8 Ω. Then, amplifier section will be rated at 120W x 7 = 840W Continuous average power. That is over 1.1 Horse Power! Will move a lot of air and kick some butt in your home theater! SPECIFICATIONS: AMPLIFIER SECTION - North American Continuous average power output (＊1) 120 W (＊2) per channel (8 Ω) 150 W (＊3) per channel (6 Ω) ＊1. Measured pursuant to the Federal Trade Commission's Trade Regulation rule on Power Output Claims for Amplifiers ＊2. 1 kHz with no more than 0.08% (＊4) total harmonic distortion ＊3. 1 kHz with no more than 1% (＊4) total harmonic distortion ＊4. Measured by Audio Spectrum Analyzer Multi-channel simultaneous power output (1 kHz, 1%, 8 Ω) 560 W (7 ch total) Continuous Power Output (1 kHz, 8 Ω, 0.08%) 120 W+120 W (Front) 120 W (Center) 120 W+120 W (Surround) 120 W+120 W (Surround back/Height) Continuous Power Output (1 kHz, 6 Ω, 1.0%) 150 W+150 W (Front) 150 W (Center) 150 W+150 W (Surround) 150 W+150 W (Surround back/Height) Continuous Power Output (1 kHz, 4 Ω, 1.0%) 200 W+200 W (Front) 200 W (Center) 200 W+200 W (Surround) 200 W+200 W (Surround back/Height)
