Who says that the near short is pulling nearly all of the juice out of
the amp? I can put a 0.5 ohm resistor across the output terminals of
my amp, with virtually no reduction in volume from the speakers.
Indeed, it's one of my favourite party tricks.... :-)

Don't you understand that, so long as the amp is capable of driving
the 'short', it doesn't matter what the relative resistance of 'short'
and speaker is? It's the *voltage* across the load that counts, and
both 'short' and speaker have *exactly* the same voltage across them.
