I understand a little about matching amps based on speaker efficiency. But how meaningful are published passive speaker amp power requirements? I get it that running a speaker with an underpowered amp can result in problems, but what would the drawbacks be in the opposite - at domestic vol. levels using an amp that is considerably more powerful than the speakers published max power requirements?
