There is some misunderstanding between amplifier power and speakers sensitivity. The combination of these two parameters plus listening room acoustic characteristics like the Critical Distance give the maximal listening volume.
There is not direct correlation between speakers bass control, speed and dynamics with amplifier power.
In many cases it depends more to amplifier schematics and power supply design. For example, in mid size room speakers with 94dB sensitivity can sound better with 845 SET vs 300B SET not because "8 watts is not enough" but because 845 SET has more energy storage in power supply, interstage driver transformer and strong driver tube (for example 300b) vs weak (for example 6sn7) driver in 300B SET.
