Regarding "drearily dull", I am finding that the amp(s) sound better when putting out some power and played fairly loudly. With 101 dB speakers, this might happen only rarely, if at all.

Using two amps in Stereo mode with only one channel of each amp connected doesn't change the basic character of the amps. They just sound more refined, and I feel, worth the extra cost in a high-performance and high-resolution system.

Maybe that "louder is better" is just me. The amps sound great at all volume levels.

Recalls a valuable lesson learned as a teenager. I greatly prefer amplifiers that resolve down to the floor without having to crank them.
