I conceptualise like this:
> Power & Efficiency (plus a few other factors) determine volume
> The sense of dynamics and vitality (within volume limitations) are down to other design factors... though increasing power can sometimes partially compensate.
Thankfully, I don't enjoy listening to music in my home at live levels, so I can compromise on power while saving my hearing to enjoy the occasional live gig. Still, I like a sense of vitality in music - the system still needs to be designed to achieve this.
