This graph shows that the RX-V2400's left channel, from CD input to speaker output with two channels driving 8-ohm loads, reaches 0.1% distortion at 102.9 watts and 1% distortion at 130.5 watts. Into 4 ohms, the amplifier reaches 0.1% distortion at 158.4 watts and 1% distortion at 195.3 watts. With five channels driving 8-ohm loads, the amplifier reaches 0.1% distortion at 43.5 watts and 1% distortion at 44.1 watts. With seven channels driving 8-ohm loads, the amplifier reaches 0.1% distortion at 32.3 watts and 1% distortion at 36.9 watts.

The analog frequency response measures –0.09 decibels at 20 hertz and –0.08 dB at 20 kilohertz. Looking at a broader bandwidth, the response measures –0.20 dB at 10 Hz and –0.54 dB at 50 kHz. In modes that involve signal processing, the response is –0.38 dB at 10 Hz, –0.17 dB at 20 Hz, –0.10 dB at 20 kHz, and –47.90 dB at 50 kHz. Response from the multichannel input to the speaker output measures –0.20 dB at 10 Hz, –0.09 dB at 20 Hz, –0.08 dB at 20 kHz, and –0.57 dB at 50 kHz. THD+N from the amplifier was less than 0.020% at 1 kHz when driving 2.83 volts into an 8-ohm load. Crosstalk at 1 kHz driving 2.83 volts into an 8-ohm load was –87.80 dB left to right and –83.69 dB right to left. The signal-to-noise ratio with 2.83 volts driving an 8-ohm load from 10 Hz to 24 kHz with "A" weighting was –99.52 dBrA.

From the Dolby Digital input to the loudspeaker output, the left channel measures –0.15 dB at 20 Hz and –0.12 dB at 20 kHz. The center channel measures –0.10 dB at 20 Hz and –0.15 dB at 20 kHz, and the left surround channel measures –0.10 dB at 20 Hz and –0.16 dB at 20 kHz. From the Dolby Digital input to the line-level output, the LFE channel is +0.11 dB at 20 Hz when referenced to the level at 40 Hz and reaches the upper 3-dB down point at 96 Hz and the upper 6-dB down point at 117 Hz.—MJP
