[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8219888, member: 614752"] I'll say it. Low impedance loads like that are very strenuous on electronics, and the lower you go with impedance the larger other small things become as a percentage of the overall load. Higher is always better for SQ, efficiency, and just being easier on equipment, but for practical reasons most folks compromise. Another interesting phenomenon (search for the 7K amp roundup thread) and you'll see that the high voltage amp was louder than many high current amps that put out more power. Yeah, most people can't tell the difference, but then again most people around here's definition of music is a soft-clipped sine wave and some 80 IQ high school dropout grunting about committing crime and his imagined ****** conquests..... slowed down.
