Yes... all speakers benefit from lots of power.. we all know that already.. but today I had a couple hours to myself while cleaning the house... and I cranked the SDA 2B's to about 10 o'clock on the big volume dial. they begin to sing at 9 0'clock.. but at 10 0'clock they just come home to daddy. :D

    I love my 2B's.
    I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D
