RE: Dennis Fraker

"If the system is overdamped, then the waveform may never actually reach the theoretical high and low levels"

I agree with your point, but if the system is overdamped and the waveform is never reaching the theoretical high and low levels (and the theoretical high and low levels would be 1 watt) then the system is never outputting 1 watt.

So if we assume that Dennis is saying that his system (that does reach 1 watt) is more powerful than a system that never reaches 1 watt, he'd be right.

This is not the same as Dennis saying that he is getting more physical work done from 1 watt.

The rate at which work is done defines the amount of watts.

If there isn't 1 watt's worth of work being done then there isn't 1 watt present.
