profil pcf-600 or Gembird EG EM1 or Emos P5801 power meter test on amplifier and plasma tv
This cheap $12 energy meter is good enough to meter your power consumption.
If you have low sensitivity speakers (for example 87db) you will probably use much more power with the same amplifier i tested today. ? The canton r-cl tested today are 4ohm and 89db. If they are 8 ohm there will also be a higher power usage. Everything will be more clearly in the future when i will test it on 4ohm vs 8ohm speakers with low sensitivity etc. 

the meter have a measuring range from 5w to 3680w, that's the reason it showed 0w when the tv was on standby, i think the tv use between 1 and 3w in standby mode. The meter can handle devices with a maximum power of 3680w. you can leave the meter connected with for example a tv for a few hours and it will calculate automatically the average price for you. 

I will test most my future devices with this thing.
