What I've learned lately on this thread is to avoid using speakers that present loads to the amp of less than 2 ohms. I believe if speaker designers and manufacturers decide to rule out the use of the majority of amps working well with their speakers, then we can certainly decide to rule out the purchase and use of their speakers.
Flipping the proverbial bird at reasonable and responsible amp designers and manufacturers, as well as reasonable and responsible potential customers, should rightly have consequences, not be rewarded and not be considered a recipe for success in a high sound quality speaker product.
