Back when I had DQ10s, I had been runing them with a pair of tube DYNA Mk 3 amps ( about 60w/ch)....the only amp I had. The sound was OK....( what did i know?) Classical music sounded gentlmanly.
THEN one day a buddy brought over a modded Hafler 500 amp. Man, did that speaker wake up and howl at the moon !! . I heard Beethoven, Mozart, Liszt, Stravinsky (especially) like they meant their music to be heard. So yes, LOTS of strong, big-heavy power supply transformer, current-rich POWER !!
