I have to say that my experience parallels Rivieraranch's. I have a 10W 300B SET amp that I just love the sound of, but thought I needed more power. I've become friends with the owner/manufacturer, who lives in the area, and he brought up a second identical amp to experiment with. He wired them internally as monoblocks, and they did get louder, but they lost that "magic", which wasn't acceptable to me. I have a number of other amps with more power, but none that sound like that. So I'd say that if you're happy with the quality of the sound that you are getting, but just looking for an increase in volume, go with a more efficient speaker. Maybe Randy's Betsy open baffles, which are WAY up there on the "bang for the buck" scale.
