YW, Schubert. Two watts normally would make no discernible difference but that's a 33% increase, so maybe so. IIRC, Atmasphere has pointed out that very important to get adequate power w an SET amp because because their distortion rises very rapidly as power output goes up. I have no independent knowledge of these kind of technical issues, so if I'm not remembering correctly, my apologies.
I've never heard the Tektons but for chamber music, which implies less dynamic range than full orchestral pieces, I think the Ref 3a monitors deserve a serious look. With no real "crossover", they put most of the wattage to work. I would also look at Coincident monitors.
