again, what does better mean ?
how can you ask this question unless you provide the criteria of "better" and "worse" ?
i realize such standards are subjective. however, only you can decide what is better.
frequently on audiogon forums, a request is made for the names of products which provide "better" sound than what one owns, without specifying what "better" is.
i have often said that better means more pleasing to one's ears. in which case one person's better is another person's worse. thus, the answer to the current question regarding amplifier power is very simple:
a lower powered amp is better if you prefer it in your stereo system to a higher powered amplifier.
it is best not to generalize, as tastes differ and designs differ.
