I might be wrong but what you describe sounds to me that your asking too much from the amplifier. The amp then can't supply a nice sine wave and starts to flatten out; the sine wave doesn't get a chance to come back from low to high quick enough and the end result is almost a DC current. From what I understand, that is how you blow up speakers with an amp that works above its current ability.
If it's true that the (digital) pre-amp is the only thing that changes when you change the output power settings then this should technically not happen. The only way I can see this happen is if the Dev would cut the amount of output transistors used when you cut output power. And if that were the case, the sound could change too because digital volume controls (apparently) sound better when turned up.
I think this is a question for the Devialet team.
