Power measurement:
Again, this is one of my pet peeves.
During the 1960s, hi-fi manufacturers engaged in what I consider fraudulent practices.
Starting with a possibly defensible practice of "IHF" power, where an external power supply was used to maintain full DC voltage during continuous sine-wave testing (since in musical use the actual power requirement was not continuous due to high peak-to-average demand of real musical programs), or power was measured during a short tone burst to avoid the DC droop.
The fraudulent specifications went further to "+/- 1 dB" ratings, which allowed an actual power to be increased by 1 dB, or an extra 26%, to inflate 50 W to over 60 W.
Even with legitimate measurements, if you measure the true RMS voltage across an 8\$\Omega\$ load and compute Vrms2/R, that is the mean power, not the RMS power.
By elementary mathematics, the RMS power of a sine-wave voltage is an extra 22.5% higher than the mean power.
However, "RMS power" is not a useful value, even though it is mathematically well-defined.
