    Your experience with your amp build seems to match the Dr Z comments, since you describe the 16 ohm speaker as more compressed and lower volume.

    That's what i thought, except because its all subjective, it made me wonder whether because I heard Dr Z say it....does that mean I am listening for it? lol

    Nah its in comparison to my other Jensen and the greenback. the G12Q is def quieter.
