Powered speakers can be sold with separate power units chosen specifically for the task at hand, the way some speakers are sold with separate cross-overs, or have upgradeable power modules. I typically (always?) prefer systems that have speakers with low impedances rather than higher impedances. Historically speakers with lower impedances are more likely to be able to produce wave form fidelity than speakers with higher impedances. There are many good reasons for speakers to have a low impedances and the market place has proven this for a long time now.
Current amp vs Voltage amp
Two different topologies with different intent. There are arguments for and against both technologies. Not having a electronics background I'm tying to get a clearer understanding.
Speaker matching including impedance and power requirements: how does one match 1:1 :: amps:speakers? General rule of Higher sensitivity benign/high impedance to tubes, and, low medium/sensitivty variable impedance to SS (considering they can be of higher power rating)?
This is not to see which is best, but to better understand the process of matching components.
