"But you can tell all of this with listening - no one really needs to read the spec sheet to hear if the system (speaker/amp) is having problems - if you need the spec sheet and the measurement to tell you this - then you don't really have very good ears so why bother spending money on high end audio equipment - you may as well go to Wal-Mart and buy the Home Theater in a Box for $129.99. "
