"In terms of headroom, usually an amplifier reaches Voltage clipping first or Current limiting first, the most headroom / largest peak power is had with a load where both are reached at essentially the same time."
I hadn't thought it through to that point, but that makes total sense.
Where sound quality is the overriding concern and headroom is not an issue, in your experience is there any advantage from a distortion perception standpoint to a solid state amplifier driving a fairly high impedance load rather than a headroom-optimized load?
My guess is "it depends...", but I'd be particularly interested in your experience and opinion.
Thanks!
