I guess I'd like to offer up this brief response to that last question...more power isn't more-refined power. It could even be the reverse. Warm midrange, good enough low end...you're describing something much different than more power, and something not at all unlike the Rega sound..or ProAc for that matter. Not that I'm recommending the Rega gear...I wouldn't be qualified to do that, but still...it's what I'm getting from what you've said.
