Great topic. Please answer the following similar question too if you'd be so good:

For the same money, would you prefer Class A to 35W/AB to 100W -or- Class A to 10W/AB to 200W?

I have the former and can switch to the latter (same amp biased differently) for free in a reasonable timeframe - but then I am committed (will cost me $200 to switch back). Seems to sound great and slam plenty the way it is, but I wonder what is theoretically best in the opinion of the wise people here.

87db efficient 8 ohm speakers (min impedance 6ohm).
