many amps were not designed to double the power at a load as low as 4 (or again at 2) in reference to a stated distortion level.
The doubling of power is a cost consideration as the power supply etc for doubling adds extra $$$.

I have used my 3.6 with a 2x45 W (4 Ohm) receiver. Room is 21 m2. It is a surprise how little power that goes inte them with todays loudnessraced music. Very good recordings with good dynamics is a different story. So far, I have never clipped the 4x180 W (4 Ohm) power amps I use today. Active drive increases the effiency by about 1.5 dB for the basses.
