what's the power difference? does it even matter? +3 db for every doubling of power ... 1-2-4-8-16-32-64-128-256-512-1024-2048-4096-8192. If you buy any amp putting out anything in the vacinity of 4k watts, you're not going to notice a difference from one to the next anyway. down to 2k is a loss of 3 db and up to 8k is a gain of 3db. you can do the math to figure out whether the difference in amps is worth it to you.
I'm not Bill, I can only hope to be like him one day. I have to stop in the 500-1k vicinity. Too much more than that and it's just not worth it to me.
