[QUOTE="Tzs503gp, post: 1055569, member: 19443"] OK, so what if you have a dropping negative voltage, followed 60deg by a positive rising current? How does Ohms law relate to that? I?m really asking, as it is something I haven?t yet wrapped my head around. Actually I?m being a moron. While voltage is dropping, even if the current is lagging behind, there is whatever current coincident to the voltage at that time. The result is a distorted signal going to the speaker. A loss of dynamics, no? I realise that a 60deg phase lag, might be an extreme example pertaining to amplifiers. It would also relate to a certain frequency, which I?m too lazy to calculate, and that frequency might be one where the majority of speakers are not reactive, but resistive. So the 60deg current lag might not ever exist in any amplifier/ speaker combination. [/QUOTE]
