Ok, i understand common tests are done to reciever to figure out the harmonic distortion they produce.
i know they commonly use one test of 8 ohms 20Hz-20kHz to figure out the recievers THD. Then they also do another test at 1kHz 8 ohms to figure out another THD level.
my question is im looking at the Onkyo TX-NR900 and they give you the information like this
----------------------------------------------------------
THD (Rated Power) 0.08 % (all channels)
Damping Factor (1 kHz, 8 ohm) 60
----------------------------------------------------------
Is the 0.08% rating a 8 ohms 20Hz-20kHz test?
What does Damping Factor mean?
And what is 60 measured?
