We definitely need to do that. The biggest concern right now for me is usability. As I noted, once the amp goes into protection in one test, the sequence keeps going and there is no way to stop it. Or limit what it does. For example, I may want to test 2 ohm in resistive mode but not with 30 and 60 degree angle to avoid the amp shutting down.
Thanks. My suggestion (FWIW, and should you spring for the device), would be to limit extremely low impedance tests, unless the manufacturer claims that as a feature for his amp. Otherwise, from a practical standpoint, and certainly with many domestic loudspeakers, such capability is probably not too important. But I would defer to those with more expertise in the testing field.
On an historical but certainly related note, in 1977 or '78, Aczel was 'testing' (mostly an informal listening test) the British Tangent RS2 loudspeaker. One amp used was the then new Mark Levinson ML-2. The Levinson was one of the first consumer amplifiers designed specifically with low impedance loads in mind. Rated at 25 watts (8 ohms), it could double its output going south--50 watts into 4 ohms, 100 watts into 2.
However, with the nominally 16 ohm Tangent, the ML-2 frequently clipped on 30 ips second gen master copies of piano music (sourced, I believe, from Max Wilcox), and played on his Studer A80.
Alternately, the oddball Futterman H3aa OTL amplifier (an amp that became unstable with loads less than 6 ohms) was able to drive the Tangent to remarkably loud levels. The Futterman could put out (probably) 100 watts into 16 ohms, whereas the Levinson's 14 volt output didn't have much to offer a 16 ohm loudspeaker. [Tangent impedance was 11.5 ohms at 70Hz, 9 ohms from 500 to 2000 Hz, and 20 ohms at 6kHz.]
