Sorry if this was addressed somewhere earlier - not sure how to search for this - maybe there is a thread that describes this that someone can point me to?
How is frequency response of an amplifier measured? I understand it's done with a frequency sweep generator, but is it done by subjecting the amp to a specific load/impedance, such as 4 Ohm, 8 Ohm, etc? And if so, is that load kept constant across entire frequency spectrum? We all know that various speakers have greatly varying impedance across their frequency response, and so wouldn't this varying impedance affect how much power an amp can deliver at each one of those frequencies and thus altering its frequency response?
