The rating of 60 watts RMS per channel is honest. At 4 ohms, the amp never clipped during normal listening. At 2 ohms, the heatsink warmed up after 30 minutes of hard driving, but the thermal protection never engaged.
| Specification | Rated Value | Real-World Implication | |---------------|-------------|--------------------------| | RMS Power @ 4 Ohms | 60 watts x 4 channels | Clean, continuous power for factory or aftermarket coaxial speakers | | RMS Power @ 2 Ohms | 90 watts x 4 channels | More punch for aftermarket component sets or lower-impedance loads | | Bridged RMS Power (4 Ohms) | 180 watts x 2 channels | Ideal for running a pair of subwoofers or a powerful front stage | | Peak Power | 360 watts x 2 (max) | Short bursts; not sustainable. Ignore for daily listening. | | Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) | >95 dB | Very low background hiss. Good for quiet passages. | | Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) | <0.05% | Clean, accurate sound reproduction. | | Frequency Response | 10Hz – 40kHz | Extends beyond human hearing; supports high-res audio. | | Crossover Slope | 12 dB/octave | Standard Linkwitz-Riley style; effective filtering. | | Input Sensitivity | 200mV – 6V | Works with both low-level pre-outs and high-level speaker wires. | equinox eq-vm-6360
± 5% + 2 digits accuracy with a large LCD screen. The rating of 60 watts RMS per channel is honest
Tip: Do not mount directly to a subwoofer enclosure—vibration will loosen internal components over time. | Specification | Rated Value | Real-World Implication
Includes a high-frequency mode (up to 10kHz) for detecting bearing defects.
Installing the Equinox EQ-VM-6360 is a weekend DIY project for intermediate users. Beginners should consult a professional, as mistakes can damage your electrical system.
