A 7.1ch receiver advertised as 100w per channel, well, seven channels at 100w each, this would mean 700w only for the audio, the AB amplifier class has good efficiency but is still way under 90% of class D, the classic transformer also has some loss in the magnetic field and heat, also the unit uses power for the rest of the stuff inside.
