I'm considering the physical equation for 'Work', W = F X D. (Isn't work required to move a Maggie's diaphragm/membrane?)
If a listener attempts driving a 20.7 with some 'garden type' amplifier, integrated or not, which is more than merely satisfactory to listen to a MMG, what is likely to happen, (even if somehow their impedances could be made the same, 'autoformer')? Perhaps one should substitute a 3.X for the 20.7, and just to screw with your mind, try replacing that MMG with a Tympani IIIB.
Everyone knows the result (as even do I), so what's its electrical or physical basis? Since I don't pretend to know the answer, I'll then ask that question in answer your original question.
