If you are running a high power amp at low power levels you will have a problem where the distortion and noise floor of the amplifier is actually higher than you may have expected. Nearly all high power push-pull amps, whether tube or solid state, exhibit this problem.
This can cause the resulting sound to seem somewhat indistinct, unresolved. The solution is to use an amp with less output power or a set of speakers that are less efficient. Since you are so close to the speakers its likely the former rather than the latter.
