care about the continuous sinusoidal power output of an amplifier when the second by second peak to RMS ratio of a music signal rarely - even Wakefield's Synthesizers - drop to less than 13dB. A 13dB power difference is a ratio of 20:1. Yes, in the old days of Hi-Fi (before the IEC specification started being used) peak power ratings were abused - almost as bad as Behringer does here - often arbitrary. But for todays amplifiers, Amplifiers shoul be rated with a crest factor - how much above the rated power voltage into a typical loudspeaker load (not a resistor) will the voltage be able to swing until current is limited - or a certain level of non-linearity is reached.
