VIOLET DATES = LATEST ADDITION(s)
* = 1 KHz  into 8 Ohms / Clipping point = 0.3% THD + Noise (APR '01 - pg.44)
** = Stabilized/Unstabilized powerline voltage
*** = Output 6-CH Surround Mode, Three Channel Driven
**** = Correction - April 2001 Issue, pg. 25
++ = S&V: Our standard all-channels-driven power measurement could not be taken because, Sony tells us, the receiver was not designed to deliver full power to all channels simultaneously.
