Arrogant?
Pot calling the kettle black.
It’s no secret that some on this forum tend to deify the designers of gear they own. And pity the fools who dare to question the alter upon which some sacrifice so freely.
The Apogees and their super low impedance are certainly a curiosity. The type of speaker they were and how they were designed , required them to have the ratings they did.
But a traditional box speaker with a 2ohm nominal impedance?
Why? To play louder with more distortion?
To each their own. Amps feed speakers. Demanding speakers stress amps. A stressed amp, distorts. If that’s what you want, enjoy.
And why, is it that some separate amp designers and speaker designers so adamantly? Each has to have a solid understanding of what the other does, otherwise, it ain’t gonna sound too good.
