Testing and Measurement Methods for In-Vehicle Audio Amplifiers (ANSI/CTA-2006-D)

ANSI/CTA-2006-D defines characteristics that, considered collectively, describe the performance of Power Amplifiers designed for In-Vehicle applications. Power Amplifiers designed for In-Vehicle applications include, but are not limited to; separate single and multichannel amplifiers, Integrated Amplifiers, and bandwidth-limited amplifiers that are connected to and rely solely on the vehicle’s primary electrical system for power input and have output power ratings of greater than 5W when measured in accordance with ANSI/CTA-2006-D.
