You are VERY WRONG on this.


Why? You haven't changed the output voltage. If the amps are solid

state,
their source impedance is much lower than that of the load, so

there
wouldn't be any significant increase in current flow (that I know).


If the output voltage is _slightly_ not matched, each amp will attempt
to correct it and push large currents into each other. HEAT. BANG.
