Reference: 20yrs SMPS and amplifier design. put plenty of money in my mouth doing it too LOL.
also here is a short discussion on modern receiver power supplies and transformers that can bring you up to date: https://www.avsforum.co
finally, I didn't say what you are asking proof of. I didn't say any particular amp produced any particular power. I just said your perception of size and weight for a high powered amp were based upon 1980s assumptions and best practices. It isn't how amplifiers are designed today.
Have a good one.

120-watts/per channel
They sure know how to work them numbers..
If that were true this thing would weight a few hundred pounds and be about a yard wide

You want the receiver crossover near or above the low end frequency response of the speakers (which you said was 150hz)

Think it goes to 999 or below before Christmas?

The FTC only regulates power output in stereo mode. That's why these units can get away with 2 ch stereo specs.
Also does anyone know if the sub outs can be calibrated individually or if it is just an internal y split terminal?
I have Denon s760h that I want to upgrade for Dirac and more channels. I integrated Denon into homeassistant but not sure if I can do the same with this? Does anyone know? It seems it uses Onkyo integration but wondering if it has bad quirks.
Thanks.
Like the RZ50 the channels are not fully assignable.
Like the RZ50 the two sub outs on this are mono so they will be treated as one.
This does include Dirac Live but does/will not support Dirac Live Bass Control.
Speakers have passive filters built in so your speaker will be fine. The advantage of being able to set active filters on the receivers is that the receiver does not have to work as hard producing frequencies you don't want certain speakers to reproduce anyway.
Depending on how serious the sound, the passive filters on your speakers may be good enough sound wise. I wouldn't worry about damaging your speakers though.
The 3800 has assignable channels, 4 independent sub outs, bass shaker compatibility, pre amp mode, Dirac Live & DLBC(next year) options & XT32 with new directional sub integration.
This does include Dirac Live and 15 watts more power.
Here is a full feature comparison of the two.

This receiver it outputs the same sub signal out of both outputs. No individual sub calibration can be done.
