Unburstable speakers

[admin_exported]

From reading WHF over the years it's obvious that some speakers can manage high volumes better than others, in fact some actually prefer it in the ASBO region of db's.

Speakers from ATC, PMC, Dynaudio seem to get the nod for this. Any others to consider?

Also are any manufacturers known for making speakers that don't like high volumes?

Most speakers will go loud without problems given enough clean amplifier power. It's the clipping when the amp starts running out of steam that's the main problem

Some speakers do sound shouty when push hard, I normally go for 4 ohms and mid 80's Db as I found they do go a lot louder in dynamic sense when driven properly.
