Believe it or not, but I have been told by Pierre-Emmanuel CALMEL, that the actual output resistance of a Devialet is in fact the resistance of the binding posts given how low is the actual resistance of the amplifier itself.
The resistance of a cable being rhô * length / section, doubling the section halves the resistance.
Now is it audible, probably when you are a given threshold, probably.
What is that threshold, I don’t know and I would posit that it does not depend solely on the amplifier. I would suspect that the load itself (the speaker, especially the filter) have a big effect and therefore whether or not it makes any discernable difference to your ears and brain is up to you.
