Mr. Curl said;

"...Let's say you use 1/3 the nominal optimum impedance as a load. Then, you have 3 times as much current flow from the amp at normal listening levels. As most of the voltage in the amp is across the output devices, and not the load, then the output devices put out 3 times the heat..."

I know you are smarting from losing the debate about cables but don't compound it by looking for ways to flame me on another thread.
