" A higher impedance speaker won't make the most of a solid state amplifier, and as a result won't sound as good by comparison as a speaker with a lower impedance."Louder yes; better sound, maybe not.
As long as the amplifier isn't pushed into clipping, it's not necessarily going to sound any better into a low impedance load. In fact, many solid state amplifiers exhibit more benign distortion behavior into a high impedance load.
I make a speaker system that can be user-configured as either a 4-ohm load or a 16-ohm load. Its efficiency is high enough that it can be used either way with most amps. So far, everyone who's tried it both ways prefers the 16 ohm configuration even with solid state amps.

Me being a dealer makes you leery?? It gets worse... I'm a manufacturer too.
