most difficult speaker to please


Which speakers have you found MOST difficult to drive, place etc??

I literally saw an small Adcom 60W/Ch amp go up in smoke trying to drive a pair of the orig. M-L CLS speakers... Luckily it was the dealers misfortune and not anyone who owned it! ;-)
I saw some Infinity IRS Betas make an ARC D250 "weep and moan" (clipped like a barber)...
Im definitely gonna second Dave's Apogee Scintilla. Loved the sound..but that 1 ohm load was a killer on all but a select handful of amps that could drive them back then..
The original Thiel CS5 was also a very difficult speaker to drive. Scintillas do seem to be the toughest, though.
