scope:
This test measures the loudspeaker's ability to provide long service with rated maximum input power. This test may be used as a life test. Two causes of failure are: thermal, due to overheating the voice coil, and mechanical, due to fatigue of some part. "Program Noise" approximates normal program material for these tests.
This standard is issued because there is no other industry standard for power rating of loudspeakers.
