In Reply to: Why then do so many people say they like low-impedance, inefficient speakers ? posted by peppy m. on October 19, 2021 at 14:10:25:
my thoughts are that it might be because that's all they know because that's all they can get in the form factor and decorative designs that fit their lifestyle or 'wifestyle' amongst other constraints ... namely:
the efficient examples with more 'R' require plenty of space, they're BIG
plus, if you don't know any better you won't know better!
Ralph covered the design / profit paradigm, so when mated to the above we get the trend as it's extant
