classe and goertz m2 veracity not compat

my experience auditioning goertz m2 veracity speaker cables with my classe ca 200 amp was that they caused the amplifier to overheat and when i spoke to alpha-core (goertz) they said this does occur with some amplifiers.

Due to their high capacitance / low inductance design, some amplifiers of wide bandwidth design can oscillate and overheat. Besides having the potential to due possible damage to the amp, the sound will not be as clean, clear or focused as it should be either. Goertz will supply these at no charge for use with their cables. Sean >

I've used several cables with my CA 200 with no problem. This amp does run hot however.
