In Reply to: Sorry if your amps posted by E-Stat on October 20, 2014 at 11:44:06:
It's not because the amps don't have enough power - it's because they've got plenty to attempt to reproduce the ton of high frequencies required for the clipped signal. A wimpy amp doesn't have the juice required to blow the tweeters.
Speakers rolled of in the higher frequencies don't sound as bad as flat speakers approaching the limits of the amp or when reproducing recorded flat tops.
