It must be getting close to the release of the your new Class-D to respond like that with such verve and virgor with doubling of wattage v halving of impedance loading.
Take it up with the likes of D’Agostino, Curl, ect ect manufacturers of the greatest amps that are recognized as being able to drive speakers with loadings that make Class-D’s run for the hills, they will tell you the same thing.
Like I said "if" all that matters is wattage with Class-D, and what you and your mate say is anywhere near true, then all anyone needs is this $300 3000w Class-D

As much as I like my NC500 monoblocks on my easy to drive secondary speakers, they can’t compete in an A/B against my friends Gryphon Antillion on his Wilson Alexia MkII’s, and the Gryphon is less than half the wattage of the NC500’s
