Kosst_amojan,
I completely agree with your comments. Those who recommend "the more power the better" promote and provide misinformation . So much depends on the design and characteristics of the specific speaker. Some speakers will clearly sound much better with tube amplifiers driving them and/or lower powered simple circuit class A solid state (for example, First Watt or Valvet, etc.).
On the other hand some speakers will definitely require amplifiers capable of higher power or higher current delivery. The load characteristics of the speaker is the vital determinative factor. To suggest that any high power solid state amplifier that measures well will be all that’s needed for "any" speaker is poor advice and in my opinion a disservice to those seeking meaningful advice. Kosst_amojan I hope people take note of your well reasoned reply.
