Why does the back of the receiver indicate that it uses 260 watts when it is supposed to be producing 120 - 170 watts x 7 channels?

It's an amp, it's connected to 120. Consumes 260 on max use. And provides u 150x7w. Makes sense to me ;)

For a more detailed description of the process, please read the article here: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/amplifier3.htm. It answers your question much better than I can in this limited space.

The 260W refers to the amplifier's power consumption. That is separate from the power sent to the speakers.

I believe the 260 watts is the electrical power the receiver is consuming, the 120-170 watts x 7 channels refer to the output of the speakers.

I had the same problem. There was some speculation that it was due to overheating. Because of this and another problem I had with this receiver, I returned it and got a Pioneer unit that I am much happier with.

Your receiver must have preamp jacks you do not have left and right which are your red and white cables. Each channel uses a separate cable preferably coaxil

I'm not sure, but check the input/output assignments first. Next, since this receiver can handle multiple zones, check to see if this output is assigned to a different zone. Lastly, if you're not looking at the big manual that you have to go on line for, I would check that. I hope this helps.

Because the unit has two power settings. On low power, it is compliant. On high power, it is not. Read the FCC Part 15. It is very clear on power output.

It's surely not 159 watts, but I know they have at least two different models. My unit (smaller wattage) provides ample sound for a large room. I cannot turn it to max. Hope this helps as I am very satisfied with unit. One warning...if you are sharing between multiple BT sources, it can be a pain to switch sources often. If you plane on using one source unit (IP5/samsung tablet for example), the pairing is seamless, and everything u turn unit on, it retains last source of BT. Enjoy. Les

My receiver has had no problems. They produce about 140 watts. Sounds like your speakers can handle a lot more. Look for a bigger amp!

Because the FCC has a Wattage restriction of up to 2w. This transmitter can be switched to 7w. Which breaks the free transmission guidelines

My understanding is 90 watt is the max rating and if you receiver can only do 40 then max won't do much going for more. Sound should be an issue at the low wattage either.

It is amateur radio specifically vhf and uhf. Max tx power is 3 watts if i recall correctly

Checked the Owner's Manual which lists the output as 20W + 20W, or 20 watts per channel. Very low distortion permits this compact unit to produce very high quality sound. I have it connected to AudioEngine bookshelf speakers and a subwoofer. I am VERY PLEASED with this product.

There is not a "high level" output on the unit. There is a "high level" input for older receivers that do not have a dedicated subwoofer output on them.

This is an old question, but does need to be answered correctly. The 125 watt rating is for 2 channels driven into an 8 ohm load. With ALL 7 channels being driven at once, this unit was bench tested at 70.5 watts per channel into an 8 ohm load. Each of the 7 channels is CAPABLE of producing 125 watts, but that would be assuming those are the only two channels running at the time. The amp board are limited by the power supply.

I cannot think of any reason why it would not work just fine. I am not proficient in sound numbers but my receiver is 100 watts per channel and have 4 of the 6 speakers pairs hooked up and it works just fine. No problems at all.

Sorry for the late response! Yes, please know the 8w out put is correct, and more accurately it is 8w*2, each channel is 8w. Hope this helps.

Mine also says it is 165W, but the bass is massive. I've got the dial on the back only turned up about 25%. Maybe you got a bad connector cord? Did you use the calibration microphone? Good luck!

Make sure all speakers are connected correctly, meaning positive with positive and negative with negative. Also the check receiver wattage specs with the selector capacity.
