[QUOTE="Mike M, post: 49591, member: 766"] Two ungrades in terms of amps. From 70W/channel to 170W/channel to 500W/channel (all into 8Ohms - the latest doubles into 4Ohms). Each time I noticed, inter alia, an increase in dynamics. I also auditioned quite a few other power amps and putting the other differences the various components brought to the party aside, with out fail the higher powered amps brought more dynamics. I don't think relatively small changes in output power will make a noticeable difference in dynamics and in such cases the other qualities proberbly outweight the change in dynamics. But when increasing power output by significant amounts the increased dynamics are hard to miss. To answer the second part of your question, the answer is obviously not. Regards M [/QUOTE]
