Amplifier design parameters required for a good match for high (16+) ohm speakers?


Though I have a reasonable understanding of, or at least am satisfied with, the requirements for an amplifier asked to drive low impedance speakers, I am wondering about specific design parameters that might need be considered when mating an amplifier to high impedance ones. Asked another way: Are there specs that one should seek out when searching for an amplifier to be mated to such speakers?

Most SS amp will output half the wattage @16ohm than @8ohm, you need to check if a amp has enough output power to drive the 16ohm speaker to desired loudness/SPL.
