[QUOTE="KenMasters, post: 1154805, member: 517"] Why not? What is half decent? As I said before, the amp should match the needs of the speaker. Most midrange AVRs are not intended to drive loads as low as 2 Ohms, but stick a Denon into pre-amp mode and pair it with a suitable Hypex or Purifi amp and it would have no problem driving either speaker in rock solid, perfectly linear fashion. What sounds good - how could you know how the content should sound? Not easily missed at all, it's precisely the sort of thing a good review would test for. Recently I mentioned that a well regarded figure on this forum's amps tend to not measure well, just so happens the next day this video popped up (video compares some different amps and touches on load invariance): [MEDIA=youtube]e7VzcX27aZM:305[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
