Could I use this to check the output of an amplifier?

Not really. I use it to set the gains on my amps, but you'd just know where the knob is at where it clips, not how much power it's putting out. Get a pair of multimeters and set one to ohms and one to volts and do some simple math.

Not unless you have pre amps before it. If you have passive pickups this board will most likely not be able to even "see" the signal. Your best bet is to plug in this output into like a practice amp to daisy chain it, then use a headphone jack on the amp. I recommend a bcr 10. Its a little 10 watt amp with gain shape and a grind button and a nice clean tone without it all for like 60 bucks used. Hope I helped.

this device is analog. any dac that puts out an analog output of sufficient strength should work.

It does not know what kind of input you are giving it it only make sure that if you have multiple pairs of speakers that you don't mess up you amp or speakers.

I don't have idea , but you can try it , worse case scenario, you can return it. It is an excellent amplifier thought....

This isn't the tool you want for just measuring volume. Get a Radio Shack Db meter for that.

That's how I use mine. (FYI - with an older HDTV set - since the output is external - you might not be able to control the volume of the sound without adjusting the amp's control. That is a bit of a pain.)

i haven't used it for that. but i am thinking you should be able to see that with the impedance reading.

Look for any inputs labeled "Output" on your television set or home theater system* and report back! =^)

No, this is not an amp. It outputs line-level only for an aux input on a receiver, could probably drive little computer speakers that have amps in them, too.

That depends on the inputs of your amplifier and the output of your tv. Look for the "audio out" on the back of your tv.

No. These are passive monitors and the power is turned on and off by your amplifier.

Yes, it would work with an amplifier, but it's not the best tool for the job. You should have a generator that is continuously variable so you can see the patterns emerge and change. An inexpensive alternative for an experiment would be an audio frequency generator app for your smartphone. The B&K; is better suited for testing where you can just turn it on and get the same frequency and amplitude every time, with no fiddling.

I have not tried it myself but as long as the output is 1-bit serial digital and you are driving a stereo analog input, you should be fine. I had an old stereo amp I used for awhile for my tv that drove 160 watt speakers and it was great. So the unit did not add any appreciable hum in the output.

In my opinion, no. Unless you know the exact circuit configuration and can definitely rule out parallel impedance or nonlinear components around the cap. There is quite a bit of info online about the tester and the signals used to execute the tests if you google around. Here is one example. It is in German but google will translate for you: http://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/AVR_Transistortester . There is more if you look. I, myself, do not use this device for in-circuit testing.

You would need to make sure you're able to use your amps power section alone. You can find out by looking at the back of the amp/head itself. Otherwise you could try running it through the amps clean channel.

I don't think that will work unless you have an amplified tube or subwoofer. That subwoofer out is unpowered meaning signal only so it is designed to fed into an amplifier
