OK, so you had some badly designed big speakers! BTW, it's the output
impedance that determines the 'grip' on the speakers (below resonance,
at any rate), not the power output.

Me - design bad speakers!..............LOL

it's the output impedance that determines the 'grip' on the speakers .....

Mmmm But then .. which amps have the lowest output impedance?


Solid-state. OTOH, above resonance it doesn't matter, as they're
mass-controlled not amplifier-controlled, although a high impedance
SET amp can certainly affect the frequency response.
