More resistance is less load??


Hi, can someone explain, in "ohms for dummies" language, why a 4 ohm speaker, which has half the resistance of an 8 ohm speaker, is said to be more demanding on the amp? And the other way, why a 16 ohm speaker, with twice the resistance, is less demanding?

Since gardening season is starting here, this thread makes me wonder about the impedance of my watering faucets…I don't want to water a 2 ohm garden with a 16 ohm hose.
