Class A bias, speaker sensitivity, watts...?

Yes, you will be operating in class A

Both speakers playing, distance is just shy of 2 meters

Hello Craigvmn. All the numbers can be intimidating, especially when newer, younger writers, with no real knowledge and eager to please their bosses, write rubbish with is filled with pure rubbish and misuse of technical terms. For instance, many preamps are being advertised as Class A. All preamps are Class A. This means the output devices produce a faithful replica of the input, only larger in some way. Other classes of amplification produce altered, non accurate versions of the input. Class B uses two (or more - an even number) outpur devices one producing an enlarged version of the positive going part of the input. enlarged, and the othe  the negative going portion of the input, suitably enlarged. These two get added together and fed to the output device, usually a speaker. The advantage is: less power gets wasted and two output devices can produce four times the output power compared to what one of the output devices could produce on its own, by itself. Class AB (there are several forms) is a combination which produces less inherent distortion than Class B. There is a Class C which is used in radio tranmitters. Class D is another animal entirely and not worth discussing here. 

You have purchased very good merchndise and may be suprised to hear that sound is a very odd form of energy. We humans can hear a mosquito flying in a room several feet away, a very small amount of power. Standing at Niagra Falls, the falling wter creates a great deal of sound energy. It vibrates our clothes, but it doesn't kill us. We hear on a logrithmic scale (spelling may be off). Most people can barely detect an increase in loudness of 3 db. An increase of 6 db is not difficult to notice, but is small. That 6 db represents 4X the power of the sound. A 10 db increase requires 10 times increas of power, but it doesn't sound much louder. As a result, most people don't use much power. Only when the drums go BOOM does the amp need to do serious work. Engoy the music!  You are not likely to heart any distortion in your listening situation. Relax, life is too short to waste on worrying.

Handy test tones but not to tap your toes by.

Just music. "Turn turn the volume up slowly until you measure 2.83 V AC at the speaker input" as in the speaker terminals on the speaker? Or should it be at the speaker tap on the amp?

Measuring true RMS voltage with musical signal is generally beyond the ability of a multimeter. That's why @erik_squires was recommending a 60 Hz test tone.

The difference between voltage at the speaker terminal and the speaker tap on the amp is whatever loss is incurred on the speaker cable, which should be small if you are using anything like a normal cable section and length. In any case, considering what you are trying to do, I would measure at the speaker.

@OP Re Boomerbillone's post. It is a little misleading to tie references to distortion to the output devices. Class A operation avoids crossover distortion. However, amplifier distortion is influenced by a whole host of factors so you can still have a Class A amplifier that distorts. There is also the fact that because true Class A amps are inefficient, they may need to be driven harder to achieve high SPLs and thus increasing distortion. That is not to dismiss the benefits of Class A operation - it has a lot going for it when it comes to reproducing music.
