mtry, I found this interesting article:

http://www.meyersound.com/support/papers/amp_power.htm

From the second last paragraph:

"Meyer Sound refers to the average power during this 500 milliseconds as“true burst power.” Peak power output should last at least 100 milliseconds in order to be useful for music reproduction."

Given that the limited space in a receiver including HK's, I doubt there will be enough capacitors in them to sustain 500, or even 100 msec of those claimed high instantaneous currents. Whether it is 10, 50msec or longer, I don't know, may be someone should ask them.

Interesting link.:D

I happen to have a paper on the amp IHF standard testing, since replaced but don't think the protocol for this was; the dynamic head room.
this was measured with a 20ms burst twice a second. Their reasoning was that music research indicates few peaks exceeding 20 ms and twice in 1 sec.
Maybe music has changed?:D
So, I guess it comes down to what they mean by instantaneous and is it really a relevant measure of anything if their definition is less than these time periods.
