I owned an M400t 'cube' for over 20 years. It gave good, powerful service but eventually began to fade.
It had even been repaired after a power glitch take-out. ZAP.
The way I was taught to measure efficiency was from plug to speaker.
While Carver has used variations of the 'tracking' power supply....the Cube was an early version, he still uses a conventional A/B output.
However, you can think about power out VS total available from the wall and see what efficiency would be required for that to work. I doubt anything over about 60% is possible, but some physics / engineering type may chime in with a better number.
Too much is never enough
