@ Power peak meter and digital display: The left and right channel
bar meters indicate the peak power output on a logarithmically
compressed scale from 0.003 to 1000 watts. At the same time,
the precise peak wattage of the higher-level channel is also
shown by the digital power display beneath the bar meter scale.
