Technical Data
- Continuous power (at distortion factor)

My trusted technician did the math when I picked up my P500L from his repair shop on 08/10/2020, and he came to the conclusion that at 4 ohms there is a little over 1000 W of amplifier power. As usual Accuphase underplays with their power specifications, here especially ;-) 2 Ohm: 2x 550 W
- Dynamic power/music power
4 Ohm:
- Total harmonic distortion:
- Stereo mode: 0.02% (2 Ohm), 0.01% (4-16 Ohm)
- Mono mode: 0.02% (2 Ohm), 0.01% (4-16 Ohm)
- Attenuation factor: 500 (stereo), 250 (mono)
- Frequency response:
- Rated power: 20 - 20,000 Hz (+0, -0.2 dB).
- at 1 Watt: 0.5 - 180,000 Hz (+0, -3 dB)
