I'm about to ramble cluelessly, but I imagine it's two-way: The juicy slam/thud/ring of "KERRANG" whipping out of cabinet like audio crack might be a combo of (1) a powerful transient passing through preamp and power sections, and then (2) how the cab's "piston" manifestation of that signal effects specific parts of the power amp's "engine" as the load/draw is imposed initially and over time. And a bit of vice versa. I'm guessing this includes some more math in the cab for receive/send in regards to the physics of the transient both electronically and sonically.Interesting stuff, so is that the db input into the cab block or the master volume on the amp block that it is related to?
Engine or Motor is a great way to put it. Cab and Amp aren't separate entities as much as they are a single Engine, where load and output are not mutually exclusive. The output affects load, affects output, and the end-user can decide how "hot" or "cool" they want the engine to run: hotter is "greasier/slippery/chewier/softer", and cooler is "grippier/chunkier/stiffer/harder" and you can set the balance to your taste.
Like I said, just guessing, but what I hear in the clips is a lot more two-way math between amp/cab with user ability to choose what that math is doing to make the Engine hotter or colder, and to influence that math in their dynamics.
A wild guess at translating what I hear, but until I learn more, I sort of think of it that way for myself.
