That makes sense. Therefore, I think you're right and I'm wrong. However, the amplifier will still maintain 5.657-volts at its speaker terminals when the load changes from 8-ohms to 4-ohms and this raises a question in my mind. If you have a solid state Class A amplifier, does that mean it will no longer provide constant voltage at its speaker terminals under varying load? How does that work with a pure Class A amplifier like a big Krell or a Pass Labs?
Thanks,
