Speaker sensitivity, impedance, and calculating amp power
^^^ Correct! Only problem, we now know the OP isn't interested in anything to do with real world results but only theory. Oh well. Still, points for the ref. 
Speaker sensitivity, impedance, and calculating amp power
I have no idea how you would do it.   How I would do it is not waste one minute of my time on hard to drive inefficient speakers. There are an awful lot of really great easy to drive speakers 86 dB or greater sensitivity. Pick any one of them and ... 
Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS.
Wow thanks for the recommendation millercarbon My pleasure. I Strategically avoided including it in my system photos https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367 because mine is the less photogenic Vornado Medium Air Circulator. Look real close, you...

jeffvegas asks: Is the Scoutmaster with JMW memorual arm and a Hana SL a bad table or not? Preferences aside. Preferences aside there are no bad tables.Will this table blow away my Project debut carbon? No. For that I recommend the Vornado Alchemy...

Mo subs is mo betta. When the bass is lacking we tend to turn the volume up more. That's because we don't hear low bass with anywhere near the sensitivity we hear midrange and treble. See: Fletcher-Munson curves. Now you no longer need to over-dri... 
What are Your Favorite and Most hated Record Manufacturers
As you're sure to know Mike, I am tempted to say none, because pressing is such a crapshoot. But then thinking about it some more, I have no idea who is good in terms of new or current production. Historically however, which to a certain extent ca...

mc, are you drinking again?  No, too early. Like to try and give it a day or so from when they let me out. Fortunately for me, Seattle, pot shop on every corner. Makes the music so much better you can't imagine. And what they say about short term...

Higher End DACs
