Or? At least one version of this challenge. Pretty sure "Audio" magazine did something along the lines of this, back in the day.
And, yes - even the speakers with the highest sensitivity, with GOBS of watts applied did not FULLY reproduce that particular waveform without clipping. Seems to me (and that was, what - 30+ years ago?) they tried it with Klipschorns and the biggest Levinson amps of the time, and still didn't quite get a pure output.
One thing I know for CERTAIN? They had a chart that gave the peak dB output & compared it to possible amp/speaker combinations.
