Sorry OM,

This was all nonsense.

Nice articulation. I don't know who OM is, but RF transmitter power amps

not "impedance matched." Neither are audio power amps for that matter.

My stereo amp has a spec on output impedance. As I recall, it was around
0.16 Ohms. Intended load is 4 - 16 Ohms.

An audio amplifier can have an improved capability of minimizing a
speaker's deviation from its desired displacement if it has a low output
impedance. That is, the speaker's cone tends to swing past its desired
displacement when its terminals are loaded to a high impedance.
