"Ok, so when testing a 40wpc stereo audio amp, does each 8 ohm speaker input get connected to a separate 8 ohm, >40watt dummy load? do you test o with both speaker inputs connected the dummy loads or one speaker at a time?"
To be clear they are are speaker outputs. This will help you keep a clear notion of the flow of the power.
Each speaker output channel, left and right, needs to have its own, separate dummy load resistor(s) connected to the respective channel.
The speaker outputs remain separate, each speaker output is connected to it own dummy load resistor(s). Both channels need a dummy load connected to them during testing.
