I'm looking to buy (upgrade) a receiver in the 150-300 range.  I
don't need more than 35 watts for my tastes and speakers.  But I've
heard that buying more power than that may also buy me more headroom
for sudden but brief peaks in music.  These "transients" may zip up
to 100 watts, although not often or for long.  I can't seem to find
any vendor specs on their product's performance in this area.  Can
anyone give any pointers to technical writeups or lab test data?
This may be of general interest, post or mail me directly as you
think best.
