That doesn’t make any sense and to be honest even here in Europe some reputable businesses use these meters because they do the job like they supposed to do..So i think you might want to let them calibrate that sucker and all will be well.. The reason that meter strays from it’s original calibration could be the fact that it took years of abuse and bass…If bass shakes your car, amps and buildings apart you might conclude it does the same things to those meters…

I think this is a difference between how they are measuring the power. Clipping means the waveform is more and more square the further into clipping you go. The amp output spends more time at the peak of the wave, peak voltage when playing square wave, and ends up measuring more power because of it? It's interesting that the Basshead Garage one measures less power. Not sure what's going on

MY question is when i watched this video earlier today i wanted to know which IS correct?

[@RAW_Reality]

Effectively, the way electricity works, neither are a "perfect" way of reading it, but if the question is "which one is closer", that answer would be the one that has a ground loop in it.

[@deasnutz9965]

All of them are guessing tools. Best thing it does is reads impedance. But you would be better off to run an oscope and clamp meter and do ohms law. You'll get a perfect number. That's clean and USABLE power. Not dirty

[@RAW_Reality]

@@deasnutz9965 The problem with that statement is that you can alter the reading of your output by simply changing frequency. Until an agreed upon frequency (and a viable, consistent test source) are provided, there's an almost infinite number of variables, and thereby outcomes. Even what's commonly referred to as "the standard" now (40hz for subs) is wrong, as it's not even a practical and absolute key in music. 36hz, for example, is much closer, yet everyone goes with 40hz, probably due in large part to SMD pedaling it. Furthermore, suggesting using ohms law off of a number you get from a clamp meter might be "good enough", but it still isn't 100% accurate, as anything from what brand of clamp to the type of shielding the wire has on it (and even the location of the clamp placement) makes for variance in those readings. Without bare wire touching both a probe and a ground, you'll never truly get 100% accuracy (which is why the SMD unit is such a stain on the concept). It's like they don't even know what a Fluke (tool) _is_ used for. SMD? More like SMH.

@@deasnutz9965 Id assume that the tools do ohms law, as both read voltage and have a current clamp, so both should be doing the same thing
