I have several Tuners and will tell you now that I have 2 of the 962D models and can tell you they are rated at 800 Watts Output. You have to remember that the front saying 1.5 Kilowatt input does NOT mean it will take 1,500 Watt!! People are confused by this and that input rating is NOT the input that most people think as these Tuners were rated on a different input scale. Maybe C.K. or someone can explain this in a way you can understand it as I have tried explaining it but just don't know the proper way to do just that.

Just always remember with the writing on the front take half of the rated "Input Power" and that's what it will tak as far as power from an amplifier for example the 962D again says "1.5 Kilowatt so actually you can safely put 800 watts from an amplifier through the 962D. The owners manual tells you its rated at 800 watts and the advertisements say the 962D is a great match for the Ameritron AL811 (600 Watt) and 811H (800 Watt) amplifiers
